Talkat FOSDEM 2022 · on Saturday, 2022-02-05· at 16:30· D.javascript· [testing, javascript]

Shows how ownCloud replaced a flaky Selenium/Nightwatch end-to-end test suite with Microsoft Playwright to test their web frontend across two backends (ownCloud classic and Infinite Scale). Covers the refactor process, reasons for switching to Playwright (playwright.dev), productivity and code-quality improvements, and concrete lessons, mistakes and best practices learned during the rewrite.
