Page Object Model is one of those patterns everyone tells you to use, but nobody explains when you shouldn't. This skill covers both the implementation mechanics and, more importantly, the decision framework for choosing between POM, fixtures, and helpers. The real value is in the second guide, which helps you avoid overengineering simple test suites with unnecessary abstraction layers. If you're building Playwright tests and wondering whether to wrap every button click in a page object or just write straightforward test code, this gives you the mental model to decide. Best for teams establishing test architecture conventions rather than solo projects.
