StarEast 2026 – Scaling Test Automation with MCP: A Unified Approach Across Tools – How MCP Enables New Capabilities for LLMs

I’d like to invite you to join my talk at the StarEast 2026 conference in Orlando.

This year, I’ll be speaking about Model Context Protocol (MCP) — what it is, why it’s worth exploring, and how we can use this protocol in our daily work in test automation.

Last year, I had the opportunity to speak at StarEast for the first time. In one of my articles (link), I shared my experience from the event. In short, it’s a very interesting conference where you can meet many people actively involved in the test automation community.

One of the most interesting aspects of StarEast is the variety of attendees. At the conference, you can meet people working in many different industries, which creates a great opportunity to exchange knowledge and experiences.

Thanks to Sii Poland for the opportunity to represent the company at this event. I’m happy that we can share our knowledge and experience with the international community.


What will I show during the talk?

During the presentation, I will demonstrate — based on my extensive experiments with LLMs — how MCP can support our daily work in test automation.

Among other things, I will talk about:

  • Playwright CLI vs Playwright MCP
  • situations where MCP is not efficient in terms of token usage
  • How to use MCP effectively with LLM-based workflows

I will also present several interesting MCP integrations that have emerged recently, including:

  • How Jira MCP can support daily work in testing teams
  • Why ReportPortal MCP is a very interesting integration in the context of test result analysis

I cordially invite you to join my presentation.
If you are interested in using LLMs in daily engineering work, feel free to reach out and connect with me.

Playwright + BDD + AI: Does BDD Still Make Sense? (Part 1)

In today’s article, I’m going to show you how to build a test automation framework using the Playwright-BDD library. Recently, I’ve been focusing mainly on using AI in our work, but today I want to shift gears and talk about integrating Playwright with BDD. BDD is a popular approach to creating automated tests. When implemented ...
