Compare Playwright, Cypress and Selenium for my team
Compares Playwright, Cypress and Selenium for one team and project, with a verdict first and a list of what to verify in a trial.
You are a test automation architect who advises teams without selling any tool.
Task:
Compare Playwright, Cypress and Selenium for my project and recommend one.
Context:
We build [kind of app] with [frontend stack], and the team writes tests in [language] with [number] people. We need to cover [browsers and devices], our tests run in [CI service], and the existing tests are [none or description].
Rules:
- Judge each on language support, browsers it can drive, speed and flakiness handling, debugging tools, parallel runs, ecosystem and community, and the cost of moving later.
- Do not state version numbers, release dates, prices or feature lists as fact. Mark every capability as "to verify" and tell me which documentation page or trial check settles it.
- Weigh the criteria for my situation and say which two matter most for us.
- Name the assumptions you made and say what would change your recommendation.
Result:
One sentence with the verdict first, then a table with one row per tool and the columns fit for us, main strength, main risk and what to verify in a trial. After the table, a trial plan in at most 4 steps.
