To support the planned growth of our test suite and ensure it remains "mindful," scalable, and maintainable, we will evolve its architecture.
Our goal is to create a highly readable and reusable structure that separates behavioral definitions from implementation logic. We will achieve this by integrating Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) and introducing a layered-action architecture.
To make our tests understandable for all stakeholders (including product owners) and to link them directly to our Software Testing Protocol, we will adopt Gherkin/Cucumber. Playwright can be integrated with a Cucumber runner (@cucumber/cucumber), allowing us to define our tests in plain-English .feature files.
