Manual & Automated Testing (Playwright)

I’m looking for help running a full test cycle on my product using a mix of manual exploration and automated scripts built with Python, Playwright and Pytest. The focus is on Python-driven test code and Playwright browser control, supplemented by hands-on manual checks where an automated assertion is not yet in place.

What I need you to do
• Build or augment a Pytest-based suite in Playwright that exercises every critical user flow.
• Perform complementary manual passes to uncover edge-case issues that slip past automation.
• Log defects with clear steps, screenshots or videos, and proposed severity.
• Hand over clean, well-commented code and a brief runbook showing how to execute the suite locally and in CI.

I’ve indicated “Python | Playwright | Pytest Manual Automation” as the exact testing style I require; if your toolkit already revolves around this stack you’re the right fit. Functional, regression and even light integration coverage are all in scope if you can hit them efficiently.

When you reply, showcase past work that proves you have delivered solid Python/Playwright automation and thorough manual testing before. Add a short outline of the approach you would take on day one so I can gauge your fit quickly.

Let’s get started and raise this product’s quality bar together.
