Introduction to Playwright

Why attend the course?

You will get to know the Playwright library from Microsoft, which is used to automate browsers, and you will learn how to use it in practice.

What will you learn on the course?

• How to start a Node.js project from scratch
  
  
• You will become familiar with the basic syntax of the Typescript language, which is necessary for working with Playwright (declaration of classes, methods, cycles, etc.)
  
  
• Try out the basic functionality of the Playwright library yourself:
  
  - Starting and closing the browser
  
  - Interaction with basic elements on the page
  
  - Creating a screenshot in case of an error
  
  - Asynchronous functions
  
  - Using the Page Object Pattern model
  
  
• The workshop will be very practical and at a level more suitable for beginners. We will not get into extra complex things, on the contrary, emphasis will be placed on partial independent tasks so that participants can try everything on their own.
