test('Paystack payment modal initializes', async ({ page }) => {
await page.goto('/checkout');
await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Pay with Paystack' }).click();
const paystackFrame = page.frameLocator('iframe.paystack-iframe');
await expect(paystackFrame.getByText('Secure payment')).toBeVisible();

Best Practices
getByRole, getByLabel) for resilient, maintainable tests.Common Mistakes
page.waitForTimeout(). Use auto-waiting assertions instead.| Anti-Pattern | Better Approach |
| Hardcoded sleep | await expect(locator).toBeVisible() |
| Testing 3rd party live APIs | Mock with page.route() |
| Shared state between tests | Isolated fixture setup/teardown |
