AI Can Generate a Test Suite. That Does Not Mean You Have One.

Generating browser tests with AI has become almost comically easy.

You paste a requirement into Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, or another coding assistant. A few seconds later, you have a folder full of Playwright tests, fixtures, page objects, and configuration files.

The tests may even pass.

This creates a dangerous moment because the output looks much closer to a finished system than it really is.

A generated test suite is not valuable because it contains many tests. It is valuable when the team can understand it, trust it, maintain it, and use its results to make release decisions.
