In my experience, many orgs that work with Selenium and its derivatives have described that (coded) approach as flaky / brittle (i.e., fragile).

Of course, until automation gets to be as clever of humans, any test automation approach is going to have some flavor of brittleness.

Playwright is excellent too. Playwright is much more forgiving with tests that need to high different origins (common with Enterprise apps) and multiple browsers in the same test (to verify collaborative editing etc). If you're considering Cypress, I'd highly recommend also giving Playwright a look (https://playwright.dev )

Agreed; also, even with human testing, their nuance can be a double-edge sword. Testing, and specifically QA is hard - as today it's mostly about the "assurance" part; does one feel assured enough to ship this, which is subjective.

You should try out Cypress, its really good and its just works out of the box.
