Overview
This project provides a step-by-step guide and boilerplate for integrating an MCP (Multi-Modal Code Generation Platform) Playwright server to generate and execute UI and API tests using LLM agents.
Installation
npx @playwright/mcp@latestSecurity Notes
The project uses `child_process.execSync` in `run-footer-tests.js`. While this can be a risk, the executed commands (`npx playwright test`) and their arguments (`testFile`) are hardcoded, mitigating arbitrary command injection. The core functionality relies on an LLM for test generation, implying trust in the LLM's output, which would ideally be reviewed before execution. No explicit `eval` on untrusted input, hardcoded secrets, or direct malicious patterns were found. Network interactions are confined to expected test targets (`nextjs.org`, `fakerestapi.azurewebsites.net`).
