Especially with junior engineers it is helpful to ask them to provide a Loom video or other proof that they have verified a feature or bug works as intended. I have tried setting up Claude Code with playwright to verify it's work, but so far am not very satisfied with the results. Any tools that are helpful with this end to end testing for web apps using Claude Code and other AI assistants? Feel free to share your product if it is relevant.

I've seen reasonable results from letting Claude Code apply test driven development and having a good e2e test suite on top of that (with Playwright). In that setup giving it Playwright MCP to access the app and verify why e2e tests are working or not working, and for writing new tests helps.

Just giving it an MCP to test changes also didn't work for me. But the combination with e2e tests was better.

I will go to work anywhere else if I had to review code with videos.
