Workflow

1. Create the testing directory structure
2. Generate Playwright configuration:
3. Configure browsers (chromium by default)
4. Set base URL from webapp config
5. Configure test timeouts and retries
6. Create fixture files for authentication and page objects
7. Generate Testkube test suite definition (if helm components exist)
8. Create README with E2E testing conventions

Standards

Follow e2e-testing-standards for test structure, page object patterns, and selector conventions.

Output

Returns a declared actions response with register_component action for the new E2E testing component.
