Take this benchmark as a grain of salt. Playwright > Puppeteer from technical point of view. Playwright is well maintained by some developer who started puppeteer and there are less bugs on playwright than on Puppeteer.

It may be faster but that depends on browser too right? Which browser version pinned to same? There are many other factors too.

Why playwright > Puppetter

1. Playwright supports cross browser properly. You don't usually see errors on firefox in playwright 2. Maintenance (Just watch recent commits, issues etc) 3. Less bugs on playwright

The scope of the benchmark is narrower than that, as stated in the article. It is not our aim to talk features, community, reliability (etc.) in this one article - that rather sounds like a book, and a long one at that.
