Write end-to-end tests with Symfony Panther 2.4 for browser automation or Playwright for complex scenarios

  • Works in 6 steps: Pick the client:… → Install symfony/panther and… → Extend PantherTestCase and drive the… → …

  • SKILL.md covers Use when, Default workflow, Guardrails and Progressive disclosure, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

E2E Panther Playwright is an agent skill from dev-toolings/superpowers-symfony. Write end-to-end tests with Symfony Panther 2.4 for browser automation or Playwright for complex scenarios

Its SKILL.md is about 550 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `reference.md`).

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Browser testing, End-to-end testing and Browser automation. It works with Playwright and Symfony. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code plugin for Symfony 7.4 LTS & 8.x — 44 skills, 7 AI subagents & 13 commands for API Platform v4, Doctrine ORM 3, TDD (Pest/PHPUnit), Messenger, security & DDD. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Browser testing
  • Tasks that involve End-to-end testing
  • Tasks that involve Browser automation

Example prompts

  • “/e2e-panther-playwright”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Pick the client: static::createPantherClient() for a real browser, static::createClient() when no JavaScript is needed.
  2. Install symfony/panther and dbrekelmans/bdi, run vendor/bin/bdi detect drivers, and register ServerExtension in phpunit.dist.xml.
  3. Extend PantherTestCase and drive the flow with explicit waits: waitFor(), waitForVisibility(), waitForElementToContain().
  4. Assert future state with assertSelectorWillExist() or assertSelectorWillContain(), current state with assertSelectorIsVisible().
  5. Keep the suite in tests/E2E and reset the database between tests (DAMADoctrineTestBundle or Foundry).
  6. Debug with PANTHER_NO_HEADLESS=1 and --debug; set PANTHER_NO_SANDBOX=1 in CI.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 459bcd0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

E2E Panther Playwright loads about 551 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 235 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~551

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

E2e Panther Playwright (Symfony)

Use when

  • A flow needs a real browser: JavaScript, multi-page journeys such as login, checkout or signup.
  • WebTestCase cannot see the behavior because it depends on client-side rendering.
  • Cross-browser needs (WebKit, tracing, video) that WebDriver does not cover: run Playwright separately.
  • Debugging a browser test that fails only in CI.

Default workflow

  1. Pick the client: static::createPantherClient() for a real browser, static::createClient() when no JavaScript is needed.
  2. Install symfony/panther and dbrekelmans/bdi, run vendor/bin/bdi detect drivers, and register ServerExtension in phpunit.dist.xml.
  3. Extend PantherTestCase and drive the flow with explicit waits: waitFor(), waitForVisibility(), waitForElementToContain().
  4. Assert future state with assertSelectorWillExist() or assertSelectorWillContain(), current state with assertSelectorIsVisible().
  5. Keep the suite in tests/E2E and reset the database between tests (DAMADoctrineTestBundle or Foundry).
  6. Debug with PANTHER_NO_HEADLESS=1 and --debug; set PANTHER_NO_SANDBOX=1 in CI.

Guardrails

  • Never rely on implicit timing: every async step gets a waitFor* or an assertSelectorWill*.
  • Target data-testid attributes, not styling classes.
  • Delete the PNGs written by takeScreenshot() or PANTHER_ERROR_SCREENSHOT_DIR; never commit them.
  • E2E is slow: cover critical paths only and keep it apart from unit tests.

Progressive disclosure

  • Use this file for execution posture and risk controls.
  • Open references when deep implementation details are needed.

Output contract

  • E2E test files, with the client type and the wait strategy used.
  • Driver setup, ServerExtension registration and the PANTHER_* variables needed locally and in CI.
  • Confirmation that screenshots were cleaned up.
