Join Stefan Judis, Playwright Ambassador, as he shows you how to speed up your Playwright test suite execution time for apps behind a login. Usually, login-walled products require you to log in for every test case. However, by implementing project dependencies, setting up a project, and pairing everything with the storage state, you can log into your app once and then reuse the browser and storage state. This setup equips your subsequent tests with essential cookies and browser state, saving time and effort by avoiding repetitive login actions.

In this video, we dive into Playwright's "page.goto()" and understand why it could be slowing down your end-to-end tests. We start with an example script and then walk you through the Playwright UI mode to understand how resource loading can delay the "page.goto()" call. We also look into the different "waitUntil" configurations and check how they affect the speed of your tests. Enjoy, and drop any questions or comments below!
