## 🛠️ Writing New Tests

### Test Structure

```typescript
import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';

test.describe('Component Name', () => {
  test.beforeEach(async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('http://127.0.0.1:8080');
    await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle');
  });

  test('should perform specific action', async ({ page }) => {
    // Test implementation
    const element = page.locator('selector');
    await expect(element).toBeVisible();
    
    // Test interaction
    await element.click();
    
    // Verify result
    await expect(page.locator('result')).toBeVisible();
  });
});
```

### Best Practices

1. **Use Descriptive Test Names**: Clear, action-oriented descriptions
2. **Test User Flows**: Focus on real user interactions
3. **Check Accessibility**: Verify ARIA attributes and keyboard support
4. **Test Responsiveness**: Verify mobile and desktop behavior
5. **Handle Async Operations**: Use proper wait conditions
6. **Clean Up State**: Reset state between tests when needed

### Locator Strategies

```typescript
// Prefer semantic selectors
page.locator('[role="button"]')
page.locator('[aria-label="Close"]')
page.locator('button[type="submit"]')

// Use class-based selectors as fallback
page.locator('[class*="button"]')
page.locator('.form-input')

// Avoid brittle selectors
page.locator('div:nth-child(3)') // ❌ Fragile
page.locator('button:first')     // ❌ Fragile
```

## 📈 Continuous Integration

### CI/CD Integration

```yaml
# Example GitHub Actions workflow
- name: Run E2E Tests
  run: |
    make install-playwright
    make test-e2e
  env:
    CI: true
```

### Test Reports

- **HTML Reports**: Interactive test results
- **JSON Reports**: Machine-readable test data
- **JUnit Reports**: CI/CD integration
- **Screenshots**: Visual failure documentation
- **Videos**: Action replay for debugging

## 🐛 Debugging Tests

### Debug Mode

```bash
# Run tests in debug mode
make test-e2e-debug

# Run specific test in debug
pnpm playwright test --debug accessibility.spec.ts
```

### Common Issues

1. **Timing Issues**: Use `waitForLoadState` and `waitForSelector`
2. **Selector Changes**: Update selectors when components change
3. **Async Operations**: Wait for network idle and animations
4. **Viewport Issues**: Test across different screen sizes

### Debugging Tools

- **Playwright Inspector**: Interactive test debugging
- **Trace Viewer**: Step-by-step test execution
- **Screenshots**: Visual failure analysis
- **Console Logs**: Browser console output

## 🎯 Future Enhancements

### Planned Features

- **Visual Regression Testing**: Automated screenshot comparison
- **Performance Budgets**: Enforce performance thresholds
- **Accessibility Audits**: Automated WCAG compliance checks
- **Cross-Framework Testing**: Extend to other Rust web frameworks
- **Mobile Device Testing**: Real device testing with Appium

### Integration Opportunities

- **Storybook Integration**: Component story testing
- **Design System Testing**: Visual consistency validation
- **API Testing**: Backend integration testing
- **Load Testing**: Performance under stress
