[Feature] Absorb @sand4rt/playwright-ct-web

[sand4rt]

Created a lib for lit/web components. Would be awesome if it could be absorbed by Playwright sooner or later:
https://github.com/sand4rt/playwright-ct-web

related to: #14241

I'm somewhat hesitant doing until we settle the larger frameworks and call it stable. Otherwise, every time we refactor thing we need to move a lot of code. It goes exponential. Wdyt?

[sand4rt]

It is definitely tedious from a maintenance point of view. There is already quite a bit of duplicate code and tests. I think would be good to improve that. Perhaps with the suggestions made in #14516 ? Or perhaps with a shared (playwright-ct-core) library which could make the code in the @playwright-ct-{framework} packages more DRY? This would also allows easier usage for lesser-known frameworks which will not be absorbed. Anyway, i think this problem can be solved somehow and IMO don't see it as a reason to wait till stable.

Besides Angular, i consider native web components to be one of the bigger ones and i don't think there's a good testing solution for it ATM. In addition, i think that a breadth-first rather than depth-first approach to adding ct libraries and features increases the likelihood of a better and a more consistent API.

Would love to see this! We're going to be using Lit heavily in our design system, and it would be great to not rely on tools like Storybook for our tests! 🙏🏼

Fully agree with @siggerzz, this would be supremely useful if Playwright could offer web component support! Our design system is making extensive use of the lib @sand4rt has created

[sand4rt]

@pavelfeldman Is it an option to relocate it to the Playwright community ORG?

[jamieomaguire]

@pavelfeldman is there any update on this? :)

[siggerzz]

@pavelfeldman Just wondering if there's potential to get any movement on this? Lit continues to grow in popularity, and as a maintainer of a growing Web Component library that heavily relies on Playwright for testing, it would be great if there was official support similar to React / Vue.

Our component test coverage would not be possible without the work done by @sand4rt, however, it's an on-going risk for users of Lit using a library with a sole maintainer.

If there's anything I can do to help move this along, it'd be much appreciated.

Cheers!
