Playwright test automation services
Maintainable Playwright and JavaScript test suites that run in your CI pipeline on every change, so regressions are caught in minutes instead of in production.
Best for: Product teams on web applications that release often and want automated regression coverage they can trust.
The problem
When releases depend on manual clicks, coverage shrinks as the product grows.
- Regression testing takes longer every sprint, so it gets cut short.
- An existing automation suite is flaky, slow, or nobody trusts its results.
- Tests live on one person's machine and never run in the pipeline.
- The team wants automation but has no time to design a framework properly.
The approach
A lean Playwright framework, built around your critical journeys.
Tessellate starts with the user journeys that carry the most risk, automates them in Playwright with JavaScript, and wires the suite into your CI so it runs on every pull request or deployment. Tests use stable locators, isolated test data and clear reporting, so failures point to real problems rather than noise.
What you get
- Automation strategy: which journeys to automate first, and which to keep manual
- Playwright and JavaScript framework set up in your repository
- Automated end-to-end tests for agreed critical user journeys
- CI pipeline integration with traces and screenshots on failure
- Review and stabilisation of an existing suite, where one exists
- Hand-over documentation and a walkthrough for your developers
How it works
Four steps. No surprises.
- 01
Discover
Review your product, current tests, pipeline and release rhythm.
- 02
Map
Agree the journeys to automate, the order, and what done looks like.
- 03
Build
Write the framework and tests in small, reviewable increments.
- 04
Hand over
Document conventions and walk your team through extending the suite.
Pricing
Clear scope, agreed before work starts.
Usually quoted as a fixed-scope package (framework plus agreed journeys) or as ongoing work on a monthly retainer. Rates are confirmed after a short discovery call.
FAQ
Questions about test automation
Why Playwright?
Playwright supports Chromium, Firefox and WebKit from one API, waits for elements automatically and records traces for failed tests. For most modern web applications it gives fast, stable end-to-end tests. If your team already uses another tool, we can discuss whether to extend it or migrate.
Do you write tests in JavaScript or TypeScript?
Rowan works in Playwright with JavaScript. If your codebase is TypeScript, the language choice is agreed during discovery.
Can you fix our existing flaky test suite?
Yes. A suite review identifies the causes of flakiness, such as brittle locators, shared test data or timing issues, and prioritises fixes before new tests are added.
Will our developers be able to maintain the tests?
That is the goal. Every engagement ends with documentation and a walkthrough so your team can add and update tests without outside help.
Which CI tools can the tests run in?
Playwright runs in most CI services, including GitHub Actions, GitLab CI and Azure DevOps. The setup is agreed with your team during discovery.
