We've been running Playwright in production for years. Today, we, at Checkly, are going all in with Playwright Check Suites. Playwright Check Suites is our latest step towards uniting testing and monitoring into a single workflow. It's our biggest advancement yet! Here's why this matters: We're not adapting Playwright anymore. We're running it natively in production with full `playwright.config` support, complete custom dependency control, and support for every tag, spec, or configuration.
