About This Episode:

Is 60% of your week going to Playwright maintenance?

If you’re losing a chunk of every week to Playwright maintenance, you know the drill. A locator moves, the build goes red, nothing’s actually broken. Shiplight is an agent native testing platform built for exactly that. Your coding agent gets a real browser, walks your app, and writes tests as plain English YAML that lives in your repo. When a locator goes stale mid run, Shiplight resolves the original intent instead of failing the build.

HeyGen’s Head of QA went from 60% of his time on Playwright upkeep to zero the following month.
