+# Running Playwright Tests
+
+To run Playwright tests, use the `npx playwright test` command, or a package manager script. To avoid opening the interactive html report, use `PLAYWRIGHT_HTML_OPEN=never` environment variable.
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+PLAYWRIGHT_HTML_OPEN=never npx playwright test
+
+# Run all tests through a custom npm script
+PLAYWRIGHT_HTML_OPEN=never npm run special-test-command
+```
+
+# Debugging Playwright Tests
+
+To debug a failing Playwright test, run it with `--debug=cli` option. This command will pause the test at the start and print the debugging instructions.
+
+**IMPORTANT**: run the command in the background and check the output until "Debugging Instructions" is printed.
+
+Once instructions containing a session name are printed, use `playwright-cli` to attach the session and explore the page.
+
+```bash
+# Run the test
+PLAYWRIGHT_HTML_OPEN=never npx playwright test --debug=cli
+# ...
+# ... debugging instructions for "tw-abcdef" session ...
+# ...
+
+# Attach to the test
+playwright-cli attach tw-abcdef
+```
+
+Keep the test running in the background while you explore and look for a fix.
+The test is paused at the start, so you should step over or pause at a particular location
+where the problem is most likely to be.
+
+Every action you perform with `playwright-cli` generates corresponding Playwright TypeScript code.
+This code appears in the output and can be copied directly into the test. Most of the time, a specific locator or an expectation should be updated, but it could also be a bug in the app. Use your judgement.
+
+After fixing the test, stop the background test run. Rerun to check that test passes.
