Generates Playwright screenshot baselines so the first CI run stops failing. Use when expect.toHaveScreenshot fails with A snapshot doesn't exist on the first CI run. Covers generating baselines with --update-snapshots in CI-like conditions, committing them, and configuring CI to fail on missing snapshots. Not for sna…
Fixes Playwright hidden-state timeouts where the element never hides in CI. Use when waiting for locator to be hidden times out only in CI. Covers screenshotting the actual state, finding the condition that should hide the element, and waiting on the underlying cause. Not for elements hidden everywhere.
Stops Playwright page crashes during navigation in CI. Use when navigation fails with page crashed only in CI. Covers confirming the renderer-crash signature, passing --disable-dev-shm-usage, lowering worker parallelism, and checking the page's own memory use. Not for pages that crash everywhere.

Covers installing with playwright install --with-deps and switching to the official Playwright docker image. Not for browsers that were never downloaded.
Fixes Cypress cross-origin failures when a login flow redirects through a second origin in CI. Use when the run fails with Cypress detected a cross origin error during login or SSO. Covers identifying both origins, wrapping second-origin steps in cy.origin(), and keeping the primary-origin session setup intact. Not fo…
Fixes unreproducible rendering bugs caused by browser version mismatch between the agent's sandbox and CI. Use when a visual or DOM test fails on CI but passes for the agent and browser versions differ. Covers matching the exact CI browser version, pinning browser versions in CI config, and treating version-specific r…

Verifies an agent's selector fix across every target browser before accepting it, so a Chromium-only fix cannot break Firefox or WebKit. Use when a healed locator works in one browser but fails in others. Not for single-browser test suites, where cross-browser verification has nothing to check against.
Fixes playwright 'Target crashed' failures in CI. Use when the browser process dies mid-suite. Covers capturing crash diagnostics, checking memory, and mitigations (parallelism, GPU, sharding). Not for test-assertion failures.

Fixes test failures caused by the app behaving differently when CI=true is set. Use when a test passes locally but fails on CI and the app changes behavior under CI. Covers auditing CI-env-dependent code paths, making tests env-aware, and documenting the CI=true contract. Not for genuine timing flakes.
Fixes Selenium's 'geckodriver exited with an error' in CI by pinning a geckodriver version compatible with the Firefox version installed in the pipeline. Shows how to read both versions from the CI log, pick the matching pair, and pin them so the mismatch cannot recur. Use when the Firefox driver fails to start in CI.…
