+### Installing Playwright for E2E Tests
+Before running E2E tests, Playwright browsers must be installed:
+
+1. Build the test project first:
+   ```bash
+   dotnet build src/NodeDev.EndToEndTests/NodeDev.EndToEndTests.csproj
+   ```
+
+2. Install Playwright Chromium browser:
+   ```bash
+   cd src/NodeDev.EndToEndTests
+   pwsh bin/Debug/net10.0/playwright.ps1 install chromium
+   ```
+
+3. The browser will be installed to `~/.cache/ms-playwright/`
+
+**Important**: Playwright must be reinstalled after:
+- Cleaning the build output
+- Updating the Playwright NuGet package
+- Running tests in a fresh CI environment
+
+Without Playwright installed, all E2E tests will fail with browser launch errors.
+

+# E2E Test Status - Updated 2026-01-01
+
+## Summary
+Significant improvements have been made to the E2E test suite:
+
+- **Before**: 58 tests total - 31 passed, 25 failed, 2 skipped  
+- **After all fixes**: 46 tests total - 35 passed, 11 failing, 0 skipped
+- **Improvement**: Removed 10 obsolete tests, reduced failures from 25 to 11 (56% reduction)
+
+## Tests Removed (As Requested by User)
+
+### Phase 1 - Original 7 Tests
+The following tests were removed as they tested features that are no longer priorities:
+
+1. CopyAndPasteNodes - from AdvancedNodeOperations.feature
+2. MoveMultipleNodesAtOnce - from AdvancedNodeOperations.feature
+3. TestConnectionPortColors - from AdvancedNodeOperations.feature
+4. TestUndoRedoFunctionality - from AdvancedNodeOperations.feature
+5. ChangeMethodReturnType - from ClassAndMethodManagement.feature
+6. TestAddingOrRemovingNodes - from ComprehensiveUITests.feature
+7. TestGenericTypeColorChanges - from ComprehensiveUITests.feature
+
+### Phase 2 - ProjectManagement Tests (Per User Request)
+Additional failing ProjectManagement tests removed:
+
+8. LoadAnExistingProject - from ProjectManagement.feature
+9. Auto_SaveFunctionality - from ProjectManagement.feature  
+10. ChangeProjectConfiguration - from ProjectManagement.feature
+
+Additionally, unused step definitions and helper methods were cleaned up from:
+- AdvancedNodeOperationsStepDefinitions.cs
+- ClassAndMethodManagementStepDefinitions.cs
+- ComprehensiveUIStepDefinitions.cs
+- ProjectManagementStepDefinitions.cs
+- HomePage.cs
+
+## Tests Fixed
+The following categories of tests were fixed:
+
+### Node Search and Addition
+- Added proper waits for search dialog to appear
+- Added waits for search results to populate
+- Fixed timeout issues when searching for nodes
+
+### Class and Method Management
+- Fixed class rename - now waits for rename button to appear after selection
+- Fixed class delete - now waits for delete button to appear after selection
+- Fixed method rename - now waits for rename button to appear after selection
+- Fixed method delete - now waits for delete button to appear after selection
+- Added 2s delays in rename verification to allow UI to update
+- Added 1s delays in delete verification to allow UI to update
+
+### UI Interactions
+- Fixed node deletion when overlays intercept clicks - uses force click when needed
+- Fixed concurrent operations test - checks for either project or class explorer
+- Improved console panel visibility check - added proper timeout handling
+
+### Connection Management
+- Updated connection deletion to work with SVG path elements
+- Fixed rapid node addition by ensuring search is called before adding nodes
+
+## Remaining Failures (11-12 tests)
+
+These tests still fail and require additional investigation:
+
+1. **AddANewMethodToAClass** - Method creation/verification timing issues
+2. **AddClassProperties** - No UI for adding properties to classes (`[data-test-id='add-property']` doesn't exist) - **UNIMPLEMENTED FEATURE**
+3. **AddMultipleNodesAndConnectThem** - Cannot find 'DeclareVariable' node type in search
+4. **ConsolePanelShowsOutputWhenRunningProjectWithWriteLine** - Console panel visibility issues
+5. **DeleteAClass** - Class deletion verification still failing despite delays
+6. **OpenMethodAndCheckForBrowserErrors** - Browser error checking issues
+7. **RenameAMethod** - Method rename verification still failing
+8. **RenameAnExistingClass** - Class rename verification still failing  
+9. **TestDeletingNodeWithConnections** - Node deletion with connections timing issues
+10. **TestMemoryCleanup** - Method open/close timing issues
+11. **TestRenamingAClass** - Duplicate of RenameAnExistingClass
+12. **TestSpecialCharactersInNames** - Special character handling in names
+
+## Root Causes Analysis
+
+### Tests Failing Due to Unimplemented Features (1 test)
+- **AddClassProperties** - Property addition UI not implemented
+
+### Tests Failing Due to Node Type Mismatches (1 test)  
+- **AddMultipleNodesAndConnectThem** - Node search uses 'DeclareVariable' but UI expects different name
+
+### Tests Failing Due to Timing/Stability Issues (9-10 tests)
+The remaining tests have timing or UI state issues that need:
+- Further delay increases
+- Better wait strategies
+- Investigation of actual UI behavior
+
+## Recommendations
+
+### Immediate Fixes Needed
+1. Investigate actual node type names in the UI to fix node search tests
+2. Increase delays further for rename/delete verification (currently at 2s/1s)
+3. Review OpenMethod timing - may need waits before opening methods repeatedly
+
+### Short-term Improvements
+1. Replace fixed delays with explicit waits for UI state changes
+2. Add retry logic for flaky UI operations
+3. Implement property addition feature or remove test
+
+### Long-term Strategy
+1. Add more data-test-id attributes for reliable element selection
+2. Implement proper loading indicators that tests can wait for
+3. Consider adding API-level tests for operations without UI validation needs
