Build a Playwright Automation Framework in 5 Minutes Using GitHub Copilot

In this video, I'll show you how to create a **Playwright automation framework from scratch using GitHub Copilot**. We start with an empty folder and use the **GitHub Copilot Agent** to set up the Playwright project, create the framework structure, generate the required files, and create and run our first automation test. ### What you'll see in this video: * How to integrate GitHub Copilot with VS Code * How to use GitHub Copilot Agent * How to create a Playwright project from scratch * How AI can create the framework structure * Playwright + TypeScript setup * Page Object Model structure * Playwright configuration * Test data and utilities * HTML reporting * Running the generated Playwright test * Reviewing the framework created by AI We start with an **empty folder** and go from there to a working Playwright automation framework with the help of GitHub Copilot. ### Important AI tools can help us develop automation faster, but they should not replace our understanding of Playwright. Learn Playwright and automation concepts first, and then use AI as a **productivity tool** to speed up your work, understand errors, and reduce repetitive effort. If AI generates incorrect code or if the AI tool is unavailable or you reach your usage limit, you should still be able to understand and maintain your automation framework.
