kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Sonnet 4.6 2457d0e13c docs(playwright): add recording section and remove duplicated requirements
- Add Recording Tests section: Playwright codegen (built-in) and
  playwright-recorder (Docker/X11-based) with usage examples
- Replace duplicated spec/env requirement blocks with links to their
  SPOT pages in docs/agents/files/role/
- Extend Development Procedure to include optional recording step

# Integration Tests
This page is the SPOT for integration testing requirements, framework, and structure.
Run integration tests with `make test-integration`.
## Framework
- You MUST use Python `unittest` as the test framework.
- Tests MUST live under `tests/integration/`.
- Mirror the source tree structure used for unit tests.
## When to Write
- You MUST add or update integration tests for every `*.py` file you touch when the change affects behavior across module or runtime boundaries.
- Write an integration test when the behavior you are verifying depends on two or more components working together — for example, a lookup plugin reading from real `group_vars` or a filter interacting with an Ansible variable structure.
## Requirements
- You MUST NOT mock collaborators that are part of the integration boundary being tested. The point is to verify real interaction.
- You MUST NOT write tests that only assert a file contains a string.
- You MUST NOT write tests only for non-executable files such as `.yml` or `.j2`. Test the behavior that consumes them.
- You SHOULD keep each test focused on one integration boundary.
- You SHOULD test realistic inputs that match what Ansible would pass at runtime.
- You MAY use `unittest.mock` to stub out external services or filesystem state that is genuinely outside the integration scope.
## How to Create
1. Identify the integration boundary (e.g. lookup plugin + `group_vars` variable loading).
2. Create the matching test file under `tests/integration/` if it does not exist.
3. Subclass `unittest.TestCase`.
4. Use realistic inputs. Build hypotheses about cross-component behavior before writing assertions.
5. Run `make test-integration` and verify all tests pass.
