--- permalink: /helpers/Playwright editLink: false sidebar: auto title: Playwright ---  ## Playwright **Extends Helper** Uses [Playwright][1] library to run tests inside: - Chromium - Firefox - Webkit (Safari) This helper works with a browser out of the box with no additional tools required to install. Requires `playwright` package version ^1 to be installed: npm i playwright@^1 --save ## Configuration This helper should be configured in codecept.json or codecept.conf.js - `url`: base url of website to be tested - `browser`: a browser to test on, either: `chromium`, `firefox`, `webkit`. Default: chromium. - `show`: - show browser window. - `restart`: - restart browser between tests. - `disableScreenshots`: - don't save screenshot on failure. - `emulate`: launch browser in device emulation mode. - `fullPageScreenshots` - make full page screenshots on failure. - `uniqueScreenshotNames`: - option to prevent screenshot override if you have scenarios with the same name in different suites. - `keepBrowserState`: - keep browser state between tests when `restart` is set to false. - `keepCookies`: - keep cookies between tests when `restart` is set to false. - `waitForAction`: (optional) how long to wait after click, doubleClick or PressKey actions in ms. Default: 100. - `waitForNavigation`: . When to consider navigation succeeded. Possible options: `load`, `domcontentloaded`, `networkidle`. Choose one of those options is possible. See [Playwright API][2]. - `pressKeyDelay`: . Delay between key presses in ms. Used when calling Playwrights page.type(...) in fillField/appendField - `getPageTimeout` config option to set maximum navigation time in milliseconds. - `waitForTimeout`: (optional) default wait* timeout in ms. Default: 1000. - `basicAuth`: (optional) the basic authentication to pass to base url. Example: {username: 'username', password: 'password'} - `windowSize`: (optional) default window size. Set a dimension like `640x480`. - `userAgent`: (optional) user-agent string. - `manualStart`: - do not start browser before a test, start it manually inside a helper with `this.helpers["Playwright"]._startBrowser()`. - `chromium`: (optional) pass additional chromium options #### Example #1: Wait for 0 network connections. ```js { helpers: { Playwright : { url: "http://localhost", restart: false, waitForNavigation: "networkidle0", waitForAction: 500 } } } ``` #### Example #2: Wait for DOMContentLoaded event ```js { helpers: { Playwright : { url: "http://localhost", restart: false, waitForNavigation: "domcontentloaded", waitForAction: 500 } } } ``` #### Example #3: Debug in window mode ```js { helpers: { Playwright : { url: "http://localhost", show: true } } } ``` #### Example #4: Connect to remote browser by specifying [websocket endpoint][3] ```js { helpers: { Playwright: { url: "http://localhost", chromium: { browserWSEndpoint: "ws://localhost:9222/devtools/browser/c5aa6160-b5bc-4d53-bb49-6ecb36cd2e0a" } } } } ``` #### Example #5: Testing with Chromium extensions [official docs][4] ```js { helpers: { Playwright: { url: "http://localhost", show: true // headless mode not supported for extensions chromium: { args: [ `--disable-extensions-except=${pathToExtension}`, `--load-extension=${pathToExtension}` ] } } } } ``` #### Example #6: Launch tests emulating iPhone 6 ```js const { devices } = require('playwright'); { helpers: { Playwright: { url: "http://localhost", emulate: devices['iPhone 6'], } } } ``` Note: When connecting to remote browser `show` and specific `chrome` options (e.g. `headless` or `devtools`) are ignored. ## Access From Helpers Receive Playwright client from a custom helper by accessing `browser` for the Browser object or `page` for the current Page object: ```js const { browser } = this.helpers.Playwright; await browser.pages(); // List of pages in the browser // get current page const { page } = this.helpers.Playwright; await page.url(); // Get the url of the current page const { browserContext } = this.helpers.Playwright; await browserContext.cookies(); // get current browser context ``` ## Methods ### Parameters - `config` ### _addPopupListener Add the 'dialog' event listener to a page #### Parameters - `page` ### _getPageUrl Gets page URL including hash. ### _locate Get elements by different locator types, including strict locator Should be used in custom helpers: ```js const elements = await this.helpers['Playwright']._locate({name: 'password'}); ``` #### Parameters - `locator` ### _locateCheckable Find a checkbox by providing human readable text: NOTE: Assumes the checkable element exists ```js this.helpers['Playwright']._locateCheckable('I agree with terms and conditions').then // ... ``` #### Parameters - `locator` - `providedContext` ### _locateClickable Find a clickable element by providing human readable text: ```js this.helpers['Playwright']._locateClickable('Next page').then // ... ``` #### Parameters - `locator` ### _locateFields Find field elements by providing human readable text: ```js this.helpers['Playwright']._locateFields('Your email').then // ... ``` #### Parameters - `locator` ### _setPage Set current page #### Parameters - `page` **[object][5]** page to set ### acceptPopup Accepts the active JavaScript native popup window, as created by window.alert|window.confirm|window.prompt.
