How Lovable tripled their Playwright test suite without slowing down CI

Lovable moved their Playwright suite to Endform, cut runtime in half, then tripled coverage while keeping execution time flat — now running 80k+ tests per week.

"End-to-end tests used to slow us down. Endform has unblocked us, giving us results quickly so we can just keep moving. Any team running Playwright at scale should consider Endform."

About Lovable

At Lovable, iteration speed is everything. They’re building a product at the forefront of the AI race, which means they need to move extremely fast. Their team relies on end-to-end testing to catch regressions across the full user journey, without slowing down day-to-day development.

The challenge

Lovable’s Playwright suite was doing its job, but it was becoming a bottleneck:

  • CI feedback was too slow - engineers waited on long E2E runs before merging
  • Scaling the suite made it worse - every new test increased wall-clock time

They wanted a setup where they could keep adding tests aggressively without turning CI into a queue.

The move to Endform

Lovable migrated their Playwright test suite to Endform and immediately saw the impact.

Instead of running E2E tests as a single, long job fighting for resources, they were able to execute the same suite in parallel on Endform’s managed infrastructure.

The result: their end-to-end runtime was cut in half after migrating.

Scaling without paying the time penalty

The bigger win came next.

With faster feedback, the team started expanding coverage in the places that were previously too expensive to test at the E2E level: critical flows, edge cases, and the kinds of regressions that are hard to catch with unit tests alone.

Within a few weeks of moving to Endform, Lovable was able to triple the number of Playwright tests.

Crucially, they did it without increasing how long CI takes. The suite kept roughly the same execution time even as the test count grew.

Results

  • 2x faster E2E feedback - cut suite runtime in half after moving to Endform
  • 3x more tests in weeks - expanded coverage rapidly once the feedback loop tightened
  • Stable CI time while scaling - kept execution time flat as the suite grew
  • 80k+ tests executed weekly - Endform now runs over 80,000 Lovable Playwright tests every week

Why it mattered

For Lovable, this wasn’t just about speed. Faster, predictable E2E runs changed behavior:

  • Engineers merged with more confidence because validation happened quickly
  • The team could add tests when they found bugs, instead of deferring them as “too expensive”
  • E2E became a tool for shipping faster, not a toll paid before merging
