Best Practices
Guidance for reliable, maintainable end‑to‑end tests with Fume and Playwright.
Keep recordings focused
Capture one user outcome per recording. Short, purpose‑built videos generate clearer tests.
Assert meaningful outcomes
Favor user‑visible confirmations (UI text, URL changes, persisted data), not incidental DOM details.
Stabilize test data
Seed or reset environments. Use unique test data per run when needed.
Parallelize thoughtfully
Shard long suites and isolate shared resources to avoid lock contention.
Review self‑healing diffs
Treat automatic updates like code changes—review, approve, and merge.
