Most teams avoid or misuse Playwright because of myths that haven't been true for years. In this session, Stefan Judis tackles six of the most persistent ones with live code: slow tests, flakiness, production monitoring, AI-generated tests, and more. Every myth gets a direct answer and a working demo.

What we'll cover

  1. End-to-end tests are flaky by default
  2. E2E tests are too slow to be worth it
  3. The test pyramid says you should minimize E2E tests
  4. And a few more...

What you'll walk away with

  • —A clear framework for deciding when E2E tests are the right tool
  • —Practical patterns to eliminate flakiness in your test suite
  • —Confidence to push back on outdated testing advice in your team
