Clarity in the Dojo: The power of the Summary Agent

Oct 23, 2025 By Christopher Beier In Sumo Logic
In the dojo, not every role is about throwing punches. Some roles are about awareness, the unmistakable voice that tells the fighter when to move, where the strike is coming from, and why the opponent matters. That’s the role of the Summary Agent in Sumo Logic Dojo AI. Unlike a traditional agent, it doesn’t launch queries or carry out actions on its own. Its purpose is to narrate, not act. In doing so, it becomes the foundation for every other decision in the dojo.

We've been running Playwright in production since the beginning. Today, we're going all in. When we first launched Browser Checks with Playwright support, we proved something critical: the most popular test automation framework since Selenium isn't just for testing—it's the foundation of modern production monitoring. But that was just the beginning. Today, we're announcing Playwright Check Suites—our bet on the future of monitoring and the most significant evolution in Checkly's history.

Why do you only use Playwright for pre-release testing and not for production monitoring, too?

Oct 23, 2025 By Checkly In Checkly
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.
