Overview

Explores a website with the Playwright MCP Server to map key functionalities. It identifies 3-5 core features or user flows, documents UI elements with locators and expected outcomes, and then closes the browser context. It also generates concise findings and test-case proposals for automation.

How This Skill Works

Using the Playwright MCP Server, the agent navigates to the provided URL, interacts with 3-5 core features, and records element locators and outcomes. It then closes the browser context and outputs a findings summary plus test-case proposals.

When to Use It

• When you’re assessing a new website to map core user flows quickly.
• When you need a baseline of 3-5 features to drive automated tests.
• When documenting UI elements and their locators for later automation.
• When generating test-case ideas from hands-on exploration.
• When you want a concise, reproducible summary after exploration and testing prep.

Quick Start

1. Step 1: Provide the target URL to explore using the Playwright MCP Server.
2. Step 2: Identify 3-5 core features or user flows and interact with them.
3. Step 3: Document interactions, locators, outcomes, and generate test-case proposals; then close the browser context.

Best Practices

• Plan exploration around 3-5 core features, not every page.
• Capture precise element locators (selectors, roles, ARIA attributes).
• Document expected outcomes for each interaction (success messages, redirects).
• Close the browser context after completing exploration to free resources.
• Generate clear test-case proposals based on observed flows and outcomes.

Example Use Cases

• Explore an e-commerce site by searching a product, applying a filter, and adding to cart.
• Walk through a user signup and email verification flow.
• Navigate a dashboard: resize panels, interact with widgets, and save changes.
• Test a checkout flow: cart review, address entry, payment, and order confirmation.
• Update profile settings: change password, upload avatar, and save changes.
