## Short Description (Max 132 chars)
Record user flows and generate clean Playwright POM projects with stable locators — faster, scalable, automation-ready.

---

## Long Description

### QA Automation Made Effortless

AutoQA Recorder automatically generates production-ready Playwright test code, helping QA teams build scalable and maintainable automation suites with minimal effort.

Built around the **Page Object Model (POM)** pattern, it produces clean TypeScript code while organizing recorded actions into reusable **Flows** and structured **Test Cases**.

Unlike basic recorders, AutoQA prioritizes stable selectors such as **Test IDs**, accessibility roles, and placeholders to reduce flaky tests and improve long-term maintainability.

## Key Features

### Smart and Resilient Selector Engine

**Priority-Based Locator Strategy**
Automatically selects the most stable locator using this priority:
`data-testid → placeholder → role/name → text → xpath`

**Dynamic ID Filtering**
Detects and ignores unstable auto-generated IDs (e.g., React or Next.js) to prevent brittle tests.

**Duplicate Element Handling**
Automatically applies `.first()` or `.nth()` indexing to avoid strict mode conflicts.

**Capture Mode**
Capture a single robust locator instantly without recording a full action.

---

### Advanced Recording Capabilities

**Reliable Input Simulation**
Uses `pressSequentially` to simulate real user typing, improving compatibility with modern React/Vue forms.

**Test Case Organization**
Split recordings into logical scenarios such as successful login or error validation.

**Flow-Based Structure**
Group related steps into reusable flows like Login, Checkout, or Registration.

**Assertion Mode**
Generate instant visibility assertions like:
`expect(locator).toBeVisible()`

---

### Complete Project Generation

**Page Object Model Ready**
Separates locators from actions for cleaner, maintainable test architecture.

**Full TypeScript Support**
Generates typed `.ts` files ready for development.

**Ready-to-Run Project ZIP Includes:**

- `playwright.config.ts`
- Sample test structure
- CI workflow templates (GitHub Actions)
- Organized Page Object Model structure

---

### Secure and Private by Design

**100% Client-Side Recording**
No interaction data is sent to external servers during recording.

**Sensitive Data Masking**
Automatically detects and masks sensitive inputs such as passwords, tokens, or CVV fields.
