Generate a Playwright test based on a scenario using Playwright MCP

New~206Updated Jun 26, 2026

Test Generation with Playwright MCP

Your goal is to generate a Playwright test based on the provided scenario after completing all prescribed steps.

Specific Instructions

  • You are given a scenario, and you need to generate a playwright test for it. If the user does not provide a scenario, you will ask them to provide one.
  • DO NOT generate test code prematurely or based solely on the scenario without completing all prescribed steps.
  • DO run steps one by one using the tools provided by the Playwright MCP.
  • Only after all steps are completed, emit a Playwright TypeScript test that uses @playwright/test based on message history
  • Save generated test file in the tests directory
  • Execute the test file and iterate until the test passes

Summary

This skill guides an AI agent to generate Playwright tests from user-provided scenarios. The agent should follow prescribed diagnostic steps, then generate and execute a TypeScript test file in the project's tests directory, iterating until the test passes.

Risk Signals

WARNING

Agent executes generated test code without explicit validation step

Instructions: 'Execute the test file and iterate until the test passes'
WARNING

Vague scope for test file generation — no constraints on what code can be generated

Instructions: 'emit a Playwright TypeScript test'
INFO

No documented error handling for failed test execution or MCP tool failures

General: missing error handling guidance
WARNING

Unclear what 'prescribed steps' entails — not explicitly documented

Instructions: 'DO NOT generate test code prematurely or based solely on the scenario without completing all prescribed steps'

Use Cases

  • Generate integration tests for web application workflows
  • Create end-to-end test suites from scenario descriptions
  • Validate user journeys and business processes with Playwright
  • Rapidly prototype test coverage for new features

Quality Notes

  • Strength: Clear primary goal (generate and execute a test)
  • Strength: Appropriately scoped to test generation domain (Playwright TypeScript)
  • Weakness: 'Prescribed steps' referenced but never enumerated — agent must infer from context or MCP tool availability
  • Weakness: No guidance on where test files are saved relative to project root or how to handle existing tests
  • Weakness: Missing documentation of test success criteria — what constitutes a 'passing' test?
  • Weakness: No edge case handling (malformed scenario, MCP tool unavailability, test syntax errors)
  • Weakness: Very minimal skill content — reads more like a task template than a comprehensive guide
