Playwright
Browser automation and end-to-end test framework that drives Chromium, Firefox and WebKit through one API.
Playwright drives the Chromium, Firefox and WebKit browser engines through one API from scripts, and ships a test runner for end-to-end tests of web applications. Besides TypeScript and JavaScript, the homepage lists Python, .NET and Java as supported languages. Microsoft maintains the project, and the introduction is the starting point in the documentation.
