Using Playwright test shards in combination with a job matrix to improve your CI speed - Tim Deschryver

Utilizing a matrix within your GitHub workflow to create a "test shard matrix" is a major improvement to your CI. This practice can cut the time in half (or better) to run your Playwright test suite.

Very useful thanks a lot for this detailed tutorial. This helped me to setup playwright shards run efficiently in CI. I have a query. I am trying to get reports on historical test run data. Currently trying allure. But do you have any recommendation? Or can you point me towards any aritcle?

Hi, sorry this is something that I'm not very familiar with.
But, AFAIK depending on your "infrastructure" (Azure DevOps, GitHub, Gitlab, ...), has some built-in tools to get stats about the history.
