Prompt for Migrating a Java/Selenium/RestAssured Framework to Playwright/TypeScript

I have a Java-based automation framework using Selenium for UI testing and RestAssured for API testing. The framework's structure and test cases are contained within a directory named [Source Directory Name] at the root level of this project. Please migrate this entire framework to use Playwright with TypeScript for both UI and API testing. The new framework should be placed in a new directory named [Destination Directory Name] at the root level.

The current framework includes:

• UI Tests: Implemented using Selenium, likely with a Page Object Model (POM) or similar design pattern. These tests cover various user interactions with the web application.
• API Tests: Implemented using RestAssured, covering the testing of RESTful APIs. These tests verify API functionality, data integrity, and response codes.
• Test Framework: Likely using JUnit or TestNG for test execution, reporting, and assertion.
• Build Tool: Likely Maven or Gradle for dependency management and build processes.
• Utilities and Helpers: Custom classes for common tasks such as browser setup, data handling, reporting, logging, and configuration management.

The migration should include the following:

1. UI Test Migration:

   • Migrate all Selenium-based UI tests to Playwright with TypeScript.
   • Maintain the existing POM or similar design pattern, adapting it to Playwright's API.
   • Ensure all UI test cases are successfully converted and functionally equivalent.
   • Handle browser interactions, element locators, waits, and assertions using Playwright's capabilities.

2. API Test Migration:

   • Migrate all RestAssured-based API tests to Playwright's API testing capabilities using TypeScript.
   • Ensure all API test cases are successfully converted and functionally equivalent.
   • Handle API requests, responses, status codes, data validation (including JSON schema validation if used in the original framework), and authentication.

3. Test Framework Migration:

   • Migrate the test framework from JUnit/TestNG to a suitable JavaScript testing framework like Jest or Mocha.
   • Ensure all tests can be executed, and reports can be generated.

4. Build Tool Migration:

   • Migrate the build tool from Maven/Gradle to npm or yarn.
   • Configure the build process for TypeScript compilation, test execution, and dependency management.

5. Utilities and Helpers Migration:

   • Migrate all utility and helper classes to TypeScript.
   • Adapt these utilities to work with Playwright and the chosen JavaScript testing framework.

6. Configuration Management:

   • Migrate the configuration mechanism (e.g., properties files, environment variables) to a suitable approach for Node.js and TypeScript.

7. Code Quality and Style:

   • Adhere to TypeScript best practices and coding conventions.
   • Ensure the migrated codebase is well-structured, readable, and maintainable.

8. Directory Structure:

   • Maintain a logical and organized directory structure in the new project, mirroring the original framework's structure where appropriate.

9. Documentation: Provide a brief README in the [Destination Directory Name] outlining the migration process, setup instructions, and how to run the tests.

Please provide the complete migrated code base in the [Destination Directory Name] directory. If there are any specific challenges or limitations encountered during the migration, please document them in the README. If any dependencies are required, please provide a package.json file in the root directory of the [Destination Directory Name] directory.

did it work out? have you completely moved over using these migrated tests?
