This project automates the Login functionality of the OrangeHRM web application using Playwright with JavaScript.

Key highlights include:

• Using XPath selectors to locate web elements
• Automating user actions: entering Username and Password, clicking Login
• Validating successful login by checking the URL after login
• Simple, maintainable automation for core login functionality

This project is ideal for learning Playwright basics, element handling, and post-login validation.

• Navigate to the OrangeHRM login page
• Locate Username and Password fields using XPath
• Enter valid credentials
• Click the Login button
• Assert that the current URL matches the expected dashboard URL after login

mkdir Playwright_OrangeHRM
cd Playwright_OrangeHRM

npm init -y

npm install @playwright/test --save-dev

• Open a test file (e.g., loginTest.spec.js)
• Execute:

• Or run in headed mode to see browser interactions:

npx playwright test --headed
