Cypress vs Playwright: how do you choose an E2E testing tool?

Answer

Both tools run end-to-end tests in real browsers. **Consider:** - Browser coverage and parallelization - Flake resistance and auto-wait behavior - Debugging experience and CI integration - Team familiarity A practical setup: keep E2E tests for critical user journeys, and rely on unit/integration tests for most logic to keep the suite stable and fast.
