Playwright API Testing Framework

This Playwright API Testing Framework is designed to automate API testing scenarios using Playwright in a TypeScript environment. The framework showcases how to leverage Playwright for comprehensive testing coverage, including interactions with web storage, handling authentication, and performing operations against both Conduit's real-world application and GitHub's APIs.

Features

Conduit Application Testing: Automate user authentication, article publication, and verification through both API and UI layers.
GitHub API Integration: Perform operations like creating repositories, issues, and handling repository deletion through GitHub's API.
Authentication Handling: Manage authentication states for testing by utilizing JSON files and environment variables for storing sensitive data.
Cross-Origin Handling: Demonstrates handling of local storage across different origins.

Project Structure

/.auth/ - Contains JSON files (api-user.json, ui-user.json) for storing/generating authentication tokens and states.
/controller/ - Houses the ConduitController and GitHubController for managing API requests.
/src/pages/ - Contains page objects for UI interactions, like ConduitPage.
/src/tests/ - Includes test specifications (conduit.api.spec.ts, github.api.spec.ts) and setup files for API and UI authentication states.
