Microsoft Playwright is an open-source framework developed by Microsoft for automating web browsers. It allows developers and testers to control browser interactions across different browsers and platforms for tasks like end-to-end testing and web scraping. Playwright supports various programming languages like JavaScript, Python, Java, and .NET

Key characteristics :

• Cross-Browser Automation : Playwright enables automation across Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit browsers, offering a single API for consistent testing
• End-to-End Testing : It is designed for automating user interactions in web applications to ensure they function correctly across different browsers and operating systems
• Web Scraping : Playwright can be used to extract data from websites by automating browser actions like navigating pages, clicking elements, and retrieving content
