Best for Beginners who wants to learn and start automation. If you know about programming web development css and js already, it would be really easy and a proper roadmap. Again, best for anyone who wants to start learning automation and testing using playwright.

Not a very beginner friendly course

By GIMENA Medina on 1/27/2026

Muchas gracias, Laurentiu!! explicas todo tan fluído que resulta fácil repasar los contenidos. Me has abierto la puerta a un abanico de posibilidades en el campo de la automatización para mi hasta ahora desconocidas. Lo del apoyo de la IA con el Agente, me parece super futurista, pero creo que no estamos tan lejos ya... saludos, RH.

From the course description: " Skill level: All Levels Some basic knowledge of JavaScript would be ideal, but not mandatory. " I'm disappointed because this course is not for beginners, in fact, you MUST know at least the basics of JavaScript to be able to understand the code written and complete the tasks. This course is very high level, I would call it a demo course rather than a tutorial. It gives some insight into the tool's capabilities, but doesn't explain the details of implementation. Maybe these materials are suitable for those who already know JavaScript and Playwright and want to refresh their knowledge, but for me it was definetely not what I expected to see.

Having recently completed the playwriting course, I can confidently attest to its well-structured and coherent design. The modules progress seamlessly, offering a solid foundation for both beginners and those with prior experience. The instructor's clear explanations make complex concepts accessible, fostering a practical understanding of playwriting. The course's comprehensive approach covers essential aspects of the craft, providing a balanced mix of theory and hands-on exercises. With responsive support and constructive feedback, this course deserves a solid 5-star rating. It's a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to enhance their playwriting skills.
