Playwright Tester — other project

Playwright Tester is the lightest possible smoke-test utility — one file (`test.mjs`), Playwright as the engine, and a CLI signature that takes a base URL plus any number of paths.

It boots each route in headless Chromium, listens for console errors and unhandled promise rejections, and exits non-zero on failure. This catches the entire class of regressions that "build passes / page returns HTTP 200 / app is white-screened" health checks miss — exactly the failure mode that bites projects mid-deploy.

Used as the universal pre-deploy "did the React app actually render?" check across the Ahsan project portfolio. No per-project Playwright wiring, no test framework, no config files, no plugins. Just a CLI you point at a URL.
