Modern E2E Testing with Playwright and AI

Описание: Pair Playwright with LLMs to plan, generate, refactor, and monitor end-to-end tests, without shipping hallucinations. This webinar showcases practical workflow: ground models with fresh docs, driving the browser via Playwright MCP, auto-fixing failing tests, refactoring to POMs, add API checks, and reusing the same suite for synthetic monitoring in Checkly.
