Modern Solutions for e2e testing
summary
Compares concrete e2e tools and gives actionable tradeoffs: Selenium/WebDriver is mature for cross‑browser CI, Cypress is great for fast local dev and debugging but can’t do cross‑domain or cross‑browser, TestCafe works across devices but runs slower, Puppeteer controls Chrome only, Taiko offers smart selectors, and Playwright combines Chromium Firefox and WebKit for true cross‑browser automation. Reports 20 tests in 40s vs 10s and claims Playwright runs one suite across Chromium Firefox WebKit as the recommended modern choice.
