← All Playwright mock interview topics
Test your knowledge of Assertions, Waits and Screenshots with a timed Playwright MCQ mock test. Each attempt gives you 20 random questions in 20 minutes from a 200-question bank covering web-first and generic assertions, soft assertions, expect.poll and toPass, auto-waiting, load states, waiting for responses and URLs, timeouts, screenshots, videos and visual regression testing with toHaveScreenshot. Submit to see your score, the correct answers and an explanation for every question.
What this mock test covers
The questions follow Module 5 of the free Playwright with TypeScript tutorial. Revise these lessons if a question catches you out:
- Playwright assertions with TypeScript
- Waits and timeouts in Playwright
- Screenshots and videos
- Visual testing with toHaveScreenshot
Sample questions with answers
- Q. Where does `expect` come from in a Playwright test?
Answer: import { expect } from '@playwright/test'
Playwright Test ships its own `expect`, extending Jest-style matchers with web-first assertions. - Q. What makes `await expect(locator).toBeVisible()` a web-first assertion?
Answer: It retries until the condition is met or the timeout expires
Web-first assertions poll the page, which removes the need for manual waits. - Q. What is the default timeout for web-first assertions?
Answer: 5 seconds
Assertions retry for 5,000 ms by default. Change it with `expect: { timeout }` in the config. - Q. How do you give a single assertion a longer timeout?
Answer: await expect(locator).toBeVisible({ timeout: 10000 })
Most web-first assertions accept a `timeout` option. - Q. Why must web-first assertions be awaited?
Answer: They return Promises; without await the test continues before the check finishes and failures can be missed
A missing await on an assertion is a classic source of tests that pass when they should fail.
