Putting Jev in a Playwright testing loop

A field report on putting Jev inside a Playwright browser-testing loop: two Jev calls per probe, 63 probes in 24.3 seconds, and a 131 ms median round trip, with a candid account of near coin-flip decisions.

Highlights

  • Two Jev calls per probe: one chooses the next action, one judges whether the result looks wrong.
  • 63 probes in 24.3 seconds of active testing, 126 calls, and a 131 ms median round trip.
  • Jev sees page text and structured observations, not screenshots; Playwright and code do the rest.
  • The author reports near coin-flip verdicts on some cases, and recommends assertions first.

Watch out

A single-authored field report on one buggy storefront, not an independent benchmark; the accuracy caveats are the point of the piece, so read it before copying the pattern.
