Keep your Playwright dependency up to date by installing the latest version:
npm install -D @playwright/test@latest
Run your tests frequently, ideally on each commit and pull request. Use Linux when running tests on CI, as it's cheaper.
Configure tests for parallel execution:
test.describe.configure({ mode: 'parallel' })
Shard your test suite by passing the --shard=x/y
command line option.
Set the maxFailures
config option or pass the --max-failures
command line flag. Playwright Test will stop after reaching the specified number of failed tests.
Use the npx playwright test
command line option or the VS Code test runner's dropdown menu to select profiles or modify default profile settings based on your testing needs.

If you still have questions, please ask a question and I will try to answer it.
