| These aren't really comparable, OP's is something that records, captures and reproduces with steps. |

| ▲ | mohsen1 14 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | playwright can do all of that too. I'm confused why this is necessary. If coding agents are given the Playwright access they can do it better actually because using Chrome Developer Tools Protocol they can interact with the browser and experiment with things without having to wait for all of this to complete before making moves. For instance I've seen Claude Code captures console messages from a running Chrome instance and uses that to debug things... | | |

| I think playwright doesnt capture video, right? |
| |
| ▲ | hungryhobbit 4 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | It does. I literally just watched a video of a Playwright test run a few minutes ago. | |
| ▲ | vunderba 9 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Yeah I’ve never seen it capture video before, but if you specify in your `AGENTS.md` that you want to test certain types of workflows, it will take progressive screenshots using a sleep interval or by interacting with the DOM. |
