+# Run end-to-end test with Playwright
+
+[Playwright](https://playwright.dev) is a framework for web application end-to-end (e2e) testing.
+
+When to use e2e tests vs unit tests:
+
+* Test functionality that cannot be tested with the unit test mocking APIs
+* Test multi window interaction
+
+## Prerequisite
+
+* Set `BE_TEST_AAD_USER_EMAIL` with the user email
+* Set `BE_TEST_AAD_USER_PASSWORD` with the user password
+
+Build the executable
+
+```bash
+npm run build-and-pack
+```
+
+## Run
+
+```bash
+npm run test-e2e
+
+# Run Playwright in debug mode to step through tests
+npm run test-e2e:debug
+```
+
+## Write tests
+
+End-to-end tests are in the `test/e2e` directory
+
+## Issues with Playwright
+
+* Currently doesn't test the final built package, but rather the stock Electron executable.
