🛒 E-Commerce Web Automation Framework

A robust, production-grade UI automation framework built to validate core business workflows for a simulated E-Commerce platform (Automation Exercise).

This project was built from scratch using Playwright, TypeScript, and the Page Object Model (POM) architecture to ensure high scalability and easy maintenance.

🚀 Key Features

• Page Object Model (POM): Strict separation of UI locators and test execution logic.
• Dynamic Test Data Management: Uses JavaScript Date.now() to generate unique user profiles on-the-fly, allowing E2E registration tests to run seamlessly in parallel without data conflicts.
• Continuous Integration (CI/CD): Integrated with GitHub Actions to automatically run tests in the cloud on every push or pull request.
• Time-Travel Debugging: Full support for Playwright's UI mode and trace viewer.
