Decision brief
What it does—and where it fits
Your goal is to generate a Playwright test based on the provided scenario after completing all prescribed steps.

- You are given a scenario, and you need to generate a playwright test for it. If the user does not provide a scenario, you will ask them to provide one.
- DO NOT generate test code prematurely or based solely on the scenario without completing all prescribed steps.
- DO run steps one by one using the tools provided by the Playwright MCP.
- Only after all steps are completed, emit a Playwright TypeScript test that uses

- Execute the test file and iterate until the test passes
Alternatives

coreyhaines31/marketingskills
ab-testing
When the user wants to plan, design, or implement an A/B test or experiment, or build a growth experimentation program. Also use when the user mentions "A/B test," "split test," "experiment," "test this change," "variant copy," "multivariate test," "hypothesis," "should I test this," "which version is better," "test two versions," "statistical significance," "how long should I run this test," "growth experiments," "experiment velocity," "experiment backlog," "ICE score," "experimentation program
event4u-app/agent-config
testing-anti-patterns
Use BEFORE writing/changing tests, adding mocks, or test-only methods on production classes — vs mocking-the-mock, production pollution, partial mocks, and overfit/tautological assertions
event4u-app/agent-config
design-review
Use when the user says "review the design", "check the UI", or wants a comprehensive UI/UX review. Uses a 7-phase methodology covering interaction, responsiveness, accessibility, and more.

pest-testing
Use when writing, generating, or improving Pest tests for Laravel — clear intent, good coverage, maintainable structure, and alignment with project testing conventions.
