The video provided by Jared from Commit Quality walks us through Playwright’s new UI tool. This user interface tool has been recently introduced in version 1.3 as part of Playwright's watch mode and trace viewer combination.

The new tool is still in preview mode, which means users may encounter issues, and changes might be expected in the future. Despite that, the tool appears to be useful and worthwhile. In this video, Jared sets up a Playwright project to demonstrate the tool and how to install it.

This tool helps to organize tests and it can reload updates, show output (such as test results) and even filter the output based on tags, status(passed, failed, and skipped), and based on the projects it is running on.

An interesting feature is that the tool can watch all tests or specific ones, which means it can automatically rerun a test when a change is made to it. This is helpful in immediately detecting if a change has caused a test to fail. The tool provides terminal output, which shows all the commands that have been executed and their results.

The video also demonstrates how the tool deals with filtering by specific tags and provides a visual/logical representation of all tests. Jared points out that this is one of the key features provided by Playwright, making the tool very competitive in the market.

Overall, in this video, Jared gives a detailed walkthrough of how to use the UI tool of Playwright, covering all its features and how they can be beneficial to testers and developers. Although he mentions a few issues with the tool, he maintains that it's very promising and suggests that users try it out for themselves.
