Using Artificial Intelligence with Microsoft Playwright

AI Test Automation ImageWe are all being asked to adopt A.I. tools to accelerate or enhance our day-to-day activities, and Test Automation is no exception. This is a fast-moving topic and there are many tools available, so how do we select the right tools and how best to use them?

This course acts as a follow-on from our Playwright Training Course, or if you have been using Playwright for a while it would also be of benefit.

The course looks at ways we can adopt A.I. tools to accelerate & create our automated testing. Keeping in the Microsoft bubble, we look at using Copilot in VS Code as well as Playwright Test Agents, Microsoft MCP server and other tools.

It also offers a background into A.I. and benefits and potential pitfalls with using the tools.

Our Training Course

Designed for existing users of Playwright, our course covers everything you need to know to about common A.I. tools in use with Playwright.

On the course, we focus on Playwright Test, Visual Studio Code and TypeScript, Github Copilot, Microsoft MCP Server, A.I. Agents and Google’s Antigravity.

The course is online, live, instructor-led, and incorporates a comprehensive e-workbook for the course. In between each online session we give you practical exercises for you to have a go at. The sessions are recorded, so you can re-visit them later.
