Use Playwright MCP tools to explore the running app (or follow provided baseUrl).
Do not invent UI details; verify via MCP interactions.
- App map: main pages/routes, key components
- Critical user journeys (P0)
- Locator strategy notes:
- prefer role/label/testid
- avoid brittle css/xpath
- identify missing testids and propose additions
- Flakiness risks:
- async UI, animations, toasts, network timing
- stability recommendations (waiting strategy, retries, network mocks if needed)
- Any blockers or gaps in information that prevent you from fully mapping the UI or proposing test targets.
- If you had to make assumptions due to gaps, document those clearly in the Handoff Packet for the next agent.
- Dont write any code snippets in summary. Focus on exploration and data collection.
Return a Handoff Packet including:
- Markdown summary as a file
ui-summary-<timestamp>.md in ./docs of the UI analysis, including the flow map and test matrix.
- "UI Flow Map" (bullets)
- "Proposed FE Test Cases" (P0/P1/P2)
- "Selector Risks & Fixes"
- "Flakiness Risks & Mitigations"
- "Assumptions Made" (if any, due to gaps in information)
- "Next Steps for FE Test Implementer" (specific areas to focus on based on critical journeys and risks)
