Add custom matchers to your expect

You can extend Playwright assertions by providing custom matchers. These matchers will be available on the expect object.

import { expect as baseExpect } from '@​playwright/test';
export const expect = baseExpect.extend({
  async toHaveAmount(locator: Locator, expected: number, options?: { timeout?: number }) {
    // ... see documentation for how to write matchers.
  },
});

test('pass', async ({ page }) => {
  await expect(page.getByTestId('cart')).toHaveAmount(5);
});

See the documentation for a full example.

Merge test fixtures

You can now merge test fixtures from multiple files or modules:

import { mergeTests } from '@​playwright/test';
import { test as dbTest } from 'database-test-utils';
import { test as a11yTest } from 'a11y-test-utils';

export const test = mergeTests(dbTest, a11yTest);

import { test } from './fixtures';

test('passes', async ({ database, page, a11y }) => {
  // use database and a11y fixtures.
});

Merge custom expect matchers

You can now merge custom expect matchers from multiple files or modules:

import { mergeTests, mergeExpects } from '@​playwright/test';
import { test as dbTest, expect as dbExpect } from 'database-test-utils';
import { test as a11yTest, expect as a11yExpect } from 'a11y-test-utils';

export const test = mergeTests(dbTest, a11yTest);
export const expect = mergeExpects(dbExpect, a11yExpect);

import { test, expect } from './fixtures';

test('passes', async ({ page, database }) => {
  await expect(database).toHaveDatabaseUser('admin');
  await expect(page).toPassA11yAudit();
});

Hide implementation details: box test steps

You can mark a test.step() as "boxed" so that errors inside it point to the step call site.

async function login(page) {
  await test.step('login', async () => {
    // ...
  }, { box: true });  // Note the "box" option here.
}

Error: Timed out 5000ms waiting for expect(locator).toBeVisible()
  ... error details omitted ...

  14 |   await page.goto('https://github.com/login');
> 15 |   await login(page);
     |         ^
  16 | });

See test.step() documentation for a full example.

UI Mode Updates

1. Zoom into time range.
2. Network panel redesign.

New APIs

• [browserContext.on('weberror')][browserContext.on('weberror')]
• [locator.pressSequentially()][locator.pressSequentially()]
• The [reporter.onEnd()][reporter.onEnd()] now reports startTime and total run duration.

Deprecations

• The following methods were deprecated: [page.type()][page.type()], [frame.type()][frame.type()], [locator.type()][locator.type()] and [elementHandle.type()][elementHandle.type()].
  Please use [locator.fill()][locator.fill()] instead which is much faster. Use [locator.pressSequentially()][locator.pressSequentially()] only if there is a
  special keyboard handling on the page, and you need to press keys one-by-one.

Breaking Changes: Playwright no longer downloads browsers automatically

[!NOTE]
If you are using @playwright/test package, this change does not affect you.

Playwright recommends to use @playwright/test package and download browsers via npx playwright install command. If you are following this recommendation, nothing has changed for you.

However, up to v1.38, installing the playwright package instead of @playwright/test did automatically download browsers. This is no longer the case, and we recommend to explicitly download browsers via npx playwright install command.

v1.37 and earlier

playwright package was downloading browsers during npm install, while @playwright/test was not.

v1.38 and later

playwright and @playwright/test packages do not download browsers during npm install.

Recommended migration

Run npx playwright install to download browsers after npm install. For example, in your CI configuration:

- run: npm ci
- run: npx playwright install --with-deps

Alternative migration option - not recommended

Add @playwright/browser-chromium, @playwright/browser-firefox and @playwright/browser-webkit as a dependency. These packages download respective browsers during npm install. Make sure you keep the version of all playwright packages in sync:

// package.json
{
  "devDependencies": {
    "playwright": "1.38.0",
    "@​playwright/browser-chromium": "1.38.0",
    "@​playwright/browser-firefox": "1.38.0",
    "@​playwright/browser-webkit": "1.38.0"

✨ New tool to merge reports

If you run tests on multiple shards, you can now merge all reports in a single HTML report (or any other report)
using the new merge-reports CLI tool.

Using merge-reports tool requires the following steps:

1. Adding a new "blob" reporter to the config when running on CI:

   export default defineConfig({
     testDir: './tests',
     reporter: process.env.CI ? 'blob' : 'html',
   });

   The "blob" reporter will produce ".zip" files that contain all the information
   about the test run.

2. Copying all "blob" reports in a single shared location and running npx playwright merge-reports:

   npx playwright merge-reports --reporter html ./all-blob-reports

Playwright v1.33 & v1.34 updates

Highlights

• UI Mode now shows steps, fixtures and attachments:

• New property testProject.teardown to specify a project that needs to run after this
  and all dependent projects have finished. Teardown is useful to cleanup any resources acquired by this project.

  A common pattern would be a setup dependency with a corresponding teardown:

  // playwright.config.ts
  import { defineConfig } from '@​playwright/test';
  
  export default defineConfig({
    projects: [
      {
        name: 'setup',
        testMatch: /global.setup\.ts/,
        teardown: 'teardown',
      },
      {
        name: 'teardown',
        testMatch: /global.teardown\.ts/,
      },
      {
        name: 'chromium',
        use: devices['Desktop Chrome'],
        dependencies: ['setup'],
      },
      {
        name: 'firefox',
        use: devices['Desktop Firefox'],
        dependencies: ['setup'],
      },
      {
        name: 'webkit',
        use: devices['Desktop Safari'],
        dependencies: ['setup'],
      },
    ],
  });

• New method expect.configure to create pre-configured expect instance with its own defaults such as timeout and soft.

  const slowExpect = expect.configure({ timeout: 10000 });
  await slowExpect(locator).toHaveText('Submit');
  
  // Always do soft assertions.
  const softExpect = expect.configure({ soft: true });

• New options stderr and stdout in testConfig.webServer to configure output handling:

  // playwright.config.ts
  import { defineConfig } from '@​playwright/test';
  
  export default defineConfig({
    // Run your local dev server before starting the tests
    webServer: {
      command: 'npm run start',
      url: 'http://127.0.0.1:3000',
      reuseExistingServer: !process.env.CI,
      stdout: 'pipe',
      stderr: 'pipe',
    },
  });

• New locator.and() to create a locator that matches both locators.

  const button = page.getByRole('button').and(page.getByTitle('Subscribe'));

• New events browserContext.on('console') and browserContext.on('dialog') to subscribe to any dialogs
  and console messages from any page from the given browser context. Use the new methods consoleMessage.page()
  and dialog.page() to pin-point event source.

⚠️ Breaking changes

• npx playwright test no longer works if you install both playwright and @playwright/test. There's no need
  to install both, since you can always import browser automation APIs from @playwright/test directly:

  // automation.ts
  import { chromium, firefox, webkit } from '@​playwright/test';
  /* ... */

• Node.js 14 is no longer supported since it reached its end-of-life on April 30, 2023.

v1.33.0

Compare Source

Playwright v1.33 & v1.34 updates

Locators Update

• Use [locator.or()][locator.or()] to create a locator that matches either of the two locators.
  Consider a scenario where you'd like to click on a "New email" button, but sometimes a security settings dialog shows up instead.
  In this case, you can wait for either a "New email" button, or a dialog and act accordingly:

  const newEmail = page.getByRole('button', { name: 'New' });
  const dialog = page.getByText('Confirm security settings');
  await expect(newEmail.or(dialog)).toBeVisible();
  if (await dialog.isVisible())
    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Dismiss' }).click();
  await newEmail.click();

• Use new options hasNot and hasNotText in [locator.filter()][locator.filter()]
  to find elements that do not match certain conditions.

  const rowLocator = page.locator('tr');
  await rowLocator
      .filter({ hasNotText: 'text in column 1' })
      .filter({ hasNot: page.getByRole('button', { name: 'column 2 button' }) })
      .screenshot();

• Use new web-first assertion [locatorAssertions.toBeAttached()][locatorAssertions.toBeAttached()] to ensure that the element
  is present in the page's DOM. Do not confuse with the [locatorAssertions.toBeVisible()][locatorAssertions.toBeVisible()] that ensures that
  element is both attached & visible.

New APIs

• [locator.or()][locator.or()]
• New option hasNot in [locator.filter()][locator.filter()]
• New option hasNotText in [locator.filter()][locator.filter()]
• [locatorAssertions.toBeAttached()][locatorAssertions.toBeAttached()]
• New option timeout in [route.fetch()][route.fetch()]
• [reporter.onExit()][reporter.onExit()]

⚠️ Breaking change

• The mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.33.0 now serves a Playwright image based on Ubuntu Jammy.
  To use the focal-based image, please use mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.33.0-focal instead.

New APIs

• New property TestProject.dependencies to configure dependencies between projects.

  Using dependencies allows global setup to produce traces and other artifacts,
  see the setup steps in the test report and more.

  // playwright.config.ts
  import { defineConfig } from '@​playwright/test';
  
  export default defineConfig({
    projects: [
      {
        name: 'setup',
        testMatch: /global.setup\.ts/,
      },
      {
        name: 'chromium',
        use: devices['Desktop Chrome'],
        dependencies: ['setup'],
      },
      {
        name: 'firefox',
        use: devices['Desktop Firefox'],
        dependencies: ['setup'],
      },
      {
        name: 'webkit',
        use: devices['Desktop Safari'],
        dependencies: ['setup'],
      },
    ],
  });

• New assertion expect(locator).toBeInViewport() ensures that locator points to an element that intersects viewport, according to the intersection observer API.

  const button = page.getByRole('button');
  
  // Make sure at least some part of element intersects viewport.
  await expect(button).toBeInViewport();
  
  // Make sure element is fully outside of viewport.
  await expect(button).not.toBeInViewport();
  
  // Make sure that at least half of the element intersects viewport.
  await expect(button).toBeInViewport({ ratio: 0.5 });

Miscellaneous

• DOM snapshots in trace viewer can be now opened in a separate window.
• New method defineConfig to be used in playwright.config.
• New option maxRedirects for method Route.fetch.
• Playwright now supports Debian 11 arm64.
• Official docker images now include Node 18 instead of Node 16.

⚠️ Breaking change in component tests

Note: component tests only, does not affect end-to-end tests.

playwright-ct.config configuration file for component testing now requires calling defineConfig.

// Before

import { type PlaywrightTestConfig, devices } from '@​playwright/experimental-ct-react';
const config: PlaywrightTestConfig = {
  // ... config goes here ...
};
export default config;

Replace config variable definition with defineConfig call:

// After

import { defineConfig, devices } from '@​playwright/experimental-ct-react';
export default defineConfig({
  // ... config goes here ...
});

New APIs

• New method route.fetch() and new option json for route.fulfill():

  await page.route('**/api/settings', async route => {
    // Fetch original settings.
    const response = await route.fetch();
  
    // Force settings theme to a predefined value.
    const json = await response.json();
    json.theme = 'Solorized';
  
    // Fulfill with modified data.
    await route.fulfill({ json });
  });

• New method locator.all() to iterate over all matching elements:

  // Check all checkboxes!
  const checkboxes = page.getByRole('checkbox');
  for (const checkbox of await checkboxes.all())
    await checkbox.check();

• Locator.selectOption matches now by value or label:

  <select multiple>
    <option value="red">Red</div>
    <option value="green">Green</div>
    <option value="blue">Blue</div>
  </select>

  await element.selectOption('Red');

• Retry blocks of code until all assertions pass:

  await expect(async () => {
    const response = await page.request.get('https://api.example.com');
    await expect(response).toBeOK();
  }).toPass();

  Read more in our documentation.

• Automatically capture full page screenshot on test failure:

  // playwright.config.ts
  import type { PlaywrightTestConfig } from '@​playwright/test';
  
  const config: PlaywrightTestConfig = {
    use: {
      screenshot: {
        mode: 'only-on-failure',
        fullPage: true,
      }
    }
  };
  
  export default config;

Miscellaneous

• Playwright Test now respects jsconfig.json.
• New options args and proxy for androidDevice.launchBrowser().
• Option postData in method route.continue() now supports serializable values.
• Ubuntu 18.04 is not supported anymore

Playwright Tools

• Record at Cursor in VSCode. You can run the test, position the cursor at the end of the test and continue generating the test.

• Live Locators in VSCode. You can hover and edit locators in VSCode to get them highlighted in the opened browser.
• Live Locators in CodeGen. Generate a locator for any element on the page using "Explore" tool.

• Codegen and Trace Viewer Dark Theme. Automatically picked up from operating system settings.

Test Runner

• Configure retries and test timeout for a file or a test with test.describe.configure([options]).

  // Each test in the file will be retried twice and have a timeout of 20 seconds.
  test.describe.configure({ retries: 2, timeout: 20_000 });
  test('runs first', async ({ page }) => {});
  test('runs second', async ({ page }) => {});

• Use testProject.snapshotPathTemplate and testConfig.snapshotPathTemplate to configure a template controlling location of snapshots generated by expect(page).toHaveScreenshot(name[, options]) and expect(screenshot).toMatchSnapshot(name[, options]).

  // playwright.config.ts
  import type { PlaywrightTestConfig } from '@​playwright/test';
  
  const config: PlaywrightTestConfig = {
    testDir: './tests',
    snapshotPathTemplate: '{testDir}/__screenshots__/{testFilePath}/{arg}{ext}',
  };
  
  export default config;

New APIs

• locator.blur([options])
• locator.clear([options])
• android.launchServer([options]) and android.connect(wsEndpoint[, options])
• androidDevice.on('close')

Locators

With these new APIs, inspired by Testing Library, writing locators is a joy:

• page.getByText(text, options) to locate by text content.
• page.getByRole(role, options) to locate by ARIA role, ARIA attributes and accessible name.
• page.getByLabel(label, options) to locate a form control by associated label's text.
• page.getByPlaceholder(placeholder, options) to locate an input by placeholder.
• page.getByAltText(altText, options) to locate an element, usually image, by its text alternative.
• page.getByTitle(title, options) to locate an element by its title.

await page.getByLabel('User Name').fill('John');

await page.getByLabel('Password').fill('secret-password');

await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Sign in' }).click();

await expect(page.getByText('Welcome, John!')).toBeVisible();

All the same methods are also available on Locator, FrameLocator and Frame classes.

Other highlights

• workers option in the playwright.config.ts now accepts a percentage string to use some of the available CPUs. You can also pass it in the command line:

  npx playwright test --workers=20%

• New options host and port for the html reporter.

  reporters: [['html', { host: 'localhost', port: '9223' }]]

• New field FullConfig.configFile is available to test reporters, specifying the path to the config file if any.

• As announced in v1.25, Ubuntu 18 will not be supported as of Dec 2022. In addition to that, there will be no WebKit updates on Ubuntu 18 starting from the next Playwright release.

Behavior Changes

• expect(locator).toHaveAttribute(name, value, options) with an empty value does not match missing attribute anymore. For example, the following snippet will succeed when button does not have a disabled attribute.

  await expect(page.getByRole('button')).toHaveAttribute('disabled', '');

• Command line options --grep and --grep-invert previously incorrectly ignored grep and grepInvert options specified in the config. Now all of them are applied together.

• JSON reporter path resolution is performed relative to the config directory instead of the current working directory:

  ["json", { outputFile: "./test-results/results.json" }]]

Assertions

• New option enabled for expect(locator).toBeEnabled([options]).
• expect(locator).toHaveText(expected[, options]) now pierces open shadow roots.
• New option editable for expect(locator).toBeEditable([options]).
• New option visible for expect(locator).toBeVisible([options]).

Other Highlights

• New option maxRedirects for apiRequestContext.get(url[, options]) and others to limit redirect count.
• New command-line flag --pass-with-no-tests that allows the test suite to pass when no files are found.
• New command-line flag --ignore-snapshots to skip snapshot expectations, such as expect(value).toMatchSnapshot() and expect(page).toHaveScreenshot().

Behavior Change

A bunch of Playwright APIs already support the waitUntil: 'domcontentloaded' option. For example:

await page.goto('https://playwright.dev', {
  waitUntil: 'domcontentloaded',
});

Prior to 1.26, this would wait for all iframes to fire the DOMContentLoaded event.

To align with web specification, the 'domcontentloaded' value only waits for the target frame to fire the 'DOMContentLoaded' event. Use waitUntil: 'load' to wait for all iframes.
