Implementation

TYPESCRIPT
test('PSE bank selection works for Colombia', async ({ page }) => {
  await page.goto('/checkout/pse');
  await page.getByRole('combobox', { name: 'Select bank' }).selectOption('Bancolombia');
  await page.getByRole('radio', { name: 'Personal' }).check();
  await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Pagar con PSE' }).click();
  await expect(page.getByText('Redirigiendo a Bancolombia')).toBeVisible();
});

Best Practices

💡 TIP
Use semantic locators (getByRole, getByLabel) for resilient, maintainable tests.
  • Mock all external dependencies for reliable CI runs
  • Use fixture teardown to clean test data automatically
  • Assert both success and failure scenarios for complete coverage
  • Run tests across Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit for cross-browser confidence
  • Common Mistakes

    ⚠️ WARNING
    Avoid page.waitForTimeout(). Use auto-waiting assertions instead.
    Anti-PatternBetter Approach
    Hardcoded sleepawait expect(locator).toBeVisible()
    Testing 3rd party live APIsMock with page.route()
    Shared state between testsIsolated fixture setup/teardown
