## Overview

Automation-Demo-SUMMIT is a Cucumber.js/Playwright browser-testing suite. Its documented workflow runs feature scenarios through thin step definitions into page objects, which use locator factories to interact with and assert against the application. The repository also includes a direct search-step implementation, browser lifecycle hooks, environment configuration, generated test data, logging, and failure screenshots. The README describes the intended layering; source excerpts confirm several calls, while some feature-to-step wiring and page-object behavior are supported only by that documentation.

Main entry points: [`utils/configLoader.js`](https://github.com/j81288423-web/ai-driven-test-lifecycle/blob/main/utils/configLoader.js) (Environment config), [`pages/home.page.js`](https://github.com/j81288423-web/ai-driven-test-lifecycle/blob/main/pages/home.page.js) (Home page object), [`pages/signup.page.js`](https://github.com/j81288423-web/ai-driven-test-lifecycle/blob/main/pages/signup.page.js) (Signup page object), [`support/world.js`](https://github.com/j81288423-web/ai-driven-test-lifecycle/blob/main/support/world.js) (Cucumber World)
