Challenge

Manual regression for a wallet-integrated product experience was slow and hard to audit, especially around wallet flows, transaction-driven state changes, and release evidence.

Approach

Built a Playwright framework with multi-environment targeting and browser projects.
Implemented cookie-based auth to bypass flaky OAuth flows.
Integrated Xray to generate BDD-style tests and upload results.
Added evidence capture: logs, traces, screenshots, and videos on failure.
Enabled CI parameterization for browser, env, and test scope selection.

Results

Deterministic automation made releases faster and more predictable.
Evidence-first debugging reduced triage time and context switching.
Jira/Xray traceability improved cross-team release confidence.

Key metrics

Measured impact

Metric	Before	After
Regression coverage	Manual runs	Deterministic Playwright runs
Traceability	Disconnected reports	Jira/Xray-linked results
Triage effort	Manual log collection	Auto evidence capture

Implementation notes

Cookie-based auth kept tests stable across environments.
Evidence-first debugging cut triage time dramatically.
Traceable automation built confidence outside engineering.
