How to Generate TypeScript Playwright Scripts with Playwright MCP

[Dronanaik]

Feature Description

Goal: Document the end-to-end process for generating TypeScript Playwright scripts via Playwright MCP tailored to a specific Playwright framework profile.

Scope

1. Prerequisites: Outline required tools, MCP configuration, and framework selection steps. 2. Script Scaffolding: Detail how to invoke MCP to produce TypeScript test skeletons aligned with the chosen framework’s conventions. 3. Configuration Alignment: Explain syncing generated scripts with existing Playwright config (e.g., test directory, reporter, fixtures). 4. Execution Workflow: Provide commands for running, debugging, and iterating on the generated scripts within the targeted framework setup. 5. Validation: Include guidance for verifying script compatibility (linting, type checks, sample runs).

Acceptance Criteria

• Documentation lives with existing MCP integration guides.
• Examples use TypeScript and the selected Playwright framework structure.
• Includes troubleshooting tips for common MCP or framework mismatches.
