# 🧪 Testing Automation MCP

This skill empowers AI Agents to **autonomously write, execute, and debug E2E tests** using the official Playwright MCP Server. It transforms passive testing into an active, agentic workflow.

## 🚀 Capabilities

1.  **Browser Control**: Navigate URLs, click elements, fill forms, and handle dialogs via MCP.
2.  **Visual Verification**: Capture screenshots and trace files for debugging.
3.  **Self-Healing**: Analyze failure logs and rewrite selector logic automatically.
4.  **Cross-Browser**: Execute tests on Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit.
