Hey! I feel your pain with playwright locate elements. One thing that saved me is using `page.getByTestId()`—super reliable if devs add test IDs.

For messy DOMs, try `page.locator()` with `:has()` or `:text()` combinators. Also, Playwright’s `debug` mode (`PWDEBUG=1`) lets you step through tests visually.

My success rate jumped to 90% after using these.

Oh, and check out Playwright’s docs on selectors—goldmine for tricky cases.
