New APIs

• New method page.addLocatorHandler() registers a callback that will be invoked when specified element becomes visible and may block Playwright actions. The callback can get rid of the overlay. Here is an example that closes a cookie dialog when it appears:

// Setup the handler.
await page.addLocatorHandler(
    page.getByRole('heading', { name: 'Hej! You are in control of your cookies.' }),
    async () => {
      await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Accept all' }).click();
    });
// Write the test as usual.
await page.goto('https://www.ikea.com/');
await page.getByRole('link', { name: 'Collection of blue and white' }).click();
await expect(page.getByRole('heading', { name: 'Light and easy' })).toBeVisible();

• expect(callback).toPass() timeout can now be configured by expect.toPass.timeout option globally or in project config
• electronApplication.on('console') event is emitted when Electron main process calls console API methods.

electronApp.on('console', async msg => {
  const values = [];
  for (const arg of msg.args())
    values.push(await arg.jsonValue());
  console.log(...values);
});
await electronApp.evaluate(() => console.log('hello', 5, { foo: 'bar' }));

• New syntax for adding tags to the tests (@​-tokens in the test title are still supported):

test('test customer login', {
  tag: ['@​fast', '@​login'],
}, async ({ page }) => {
  // ...
});

Use --grep command line option to run only tests with certain tags.

npx playwright test --grep @​fast

• --project command line flag now supports '*' wildcard:

npx playwright test --project='*mobile*'

• New syntax for test annotations:

test('test full report', {
  annotation: [
    { type: 'issue', description: 'https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/23180' },
    { type: 'docs', description: 'https://playwright.dev/docs/test-annotations#tag-tests' },
  ],
}, async ({ page }) => {
  // ...
});

• page.pdf() accepts two new options tagged and outline.

Announcements

• ⚠️ Ubuntu 18 is not supported anymore.
