Demo app on GitHub shows Playwright plus Azure Load Testing and Chaos Studio running end‑to‑end tests, with VS Code UI mode recording clicks into runnable test code and screenshots. Playwright claims auto‑waiting prevents flaky tests, uses storageState to reuse browser auth, supports Chromium/Firefox/WebKit and runs headless on Linux CI. New attachments feature surfaces visual diffs. Team demonstrates recording, paramaterized roles, and the demo app working end‑to‑end.
