+        ## Description
+
+        Selenium is used in the aspnetcore repo for automated E2E integration testing.
+        Playwright is used in the aspnetcore repo for some benchmarking apps. We need to ensure the docker file and the package version match.
+
+        ## Instructions
+
+        To update the Selenium and Playwright versions, these files need to be updated:
+
+        ### Packages
+          - [ ] [Selenium in `Versions.props`](eng/Versions.props) from NuGet:
+            - [ ] [Selenium.WebDriver](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Selenium.WebDriver/) (Config variable `SeleniumWebDriverVersion`)
+            - [ ] [Selenium.Support](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Selenium.Support/) (Config variable `SeleniumSupportVersion`)
+          - [ ] Ensure Playwright versions match
+            - [ ]  [Blazor Wasm benchmarks in `src/Components/benchmarkapps/Wasm.Performance/dockerfile`](src/Components/benchmarkapps/Wasm.Performance/dockerfile) (image starts with `mcr.microsoft.com`)
+            - [ ]  [Playwright package version](eng/Versions.props) (Config variable `PlaywrightVersion`)
+
+        ## Actions
+
+        Please, open the PR against `main` branch and include changes to the files listed above.
