Executive Summary

What you will learn

Creating the demo of a DIY Playwright framework is the easy part.

Teams that build their own frameworks tend to follow a similar arc after that: early momentum, a stretch where maintenance starts competing for attention, and a real decision point around month 10 or 11 about what the framework becomes next.
The Year 1 of a DIY Testing Automation Framework Guide maps that arc month by month, so a team can plan for it rather than discover it.

✓

Traces the full first year in three stages: build, stabilization, and scaling.

✓

Shows how the momentum of the first 30 days gives way to the real cost of the next 90.

✓

Answers whether Claude changes the math on ownership and maintenance.
