+### Tagging Tests
+
+To tag a test as a smoke test (which will be run in CI/CD):
+
+```typescript
+// Use the tag option in the test function
+test('test name', { tag: '@Smoke' }, async ({ page }) => {

+```
+
+It's recommended to tag at least one test for each critical functionality to ensure good coverage in the smoke test suite.

 ## CI/CD Pipeline
 
 This project includes a CI/CD pipeline configuration for Google Cloud Build. The pipeline:
 
 1. Installs dependencies
-2. Installs Playwright browsers
-3. Runs tests
+2. Installs Playwright browsers (Chrome/Chromium only)
+3. Runs only smoke tests (tagged with @Smoke) for faster feedback
 4. Uploads test reports and artifacts to Google Cloud Storage
 
 For detailed setup instructions, see [CI/CD Setup](docs/ci-cd-setup.md).
