Highlights

• New cookie property partitionKey in browserContext.cookies() and browserContext.addCookies(). This property allows to save and restore partitioned cookies. See CHIPS MDN article for more information. Note that browsers have different support and defaults for cookie partitioning.

  import { defineConfig } from '@​playwright/test';
  
  export default defineConfig({
    reporter: [['html', { noSnippets: true }]]
  });

• New property location in test annotations, for example in testResult.annotations and testInfo.annotations. It shows where the annotation like test.skip or test.fixme was added.

Command Line

• New option --user-data-dir in multiple commands. You can specify the same user data dir to reuse browsing state, like authentication, between sessions.

  npx playwright codegen --user-data-dir=./user-data

• Option -gv has been removed from the npx playwright test command. Use --grep-invert instead.

Trace Viewer and HTML Reporter Updates

• New Steps in Trace Viewer and HTML reporter:

• New option in 'html' reporter to set the title of a specific test run:

  import { defineConfig } from '@​playwright/test';
  
  export default defineConfig({
    reporter: [['html', { title: 'Custom test run #​1028' }]]
  });

Miscellaneous

• New option kind in testInfo.snapshotPath() controls which snapshot path template is used.

• New method locator.describe() to describe a locator. Used for trace viewer and reports.

  const button = page.getByTestId('btn-sub').describe('Subscribe button');
  await button.click();

• npx playwright install --list will now list all installed browsers, versions and locations.

Browser Versions

• Chromium 138.0.7204.4
• Mozilla Firefox 139.0
• WebKit 18.5

This version was also tested against the following stable channels:

• Google Chrome 137
• Microsoft Edge 137

v1.52.0

Compare Source

Highlights

• New method expect(locator).toContainClass() to ergonomically assert individual class names on the element.

  await expect(page.getByRole('listitem', { name: 'Ship v1.52' })).toContainClass('done');

• Aria Snapshots got two new properties: /children for strict matching and /url for links.

  await expect(locator).toMatchAriaSnapshot(`
    - list
      - /children: equal
      - listitem: Feature A
      - listitem:
        - link "Feature B":
          - /url: "https://playwright.dev"
  `);

Test Runner

• New property testProject.workers allows to specify the number of concurrent worker processes to use for a test project. The global limit of property testConfig.workers still applies.
• New testConfig.failOnFlakyTests option to fail the test run if any flaky tests are detected, similarly to --fail-on-flaky-tests. This is useful for CI/CD environments where you want to ensure that all tests are stable before deploying.
• New property testResult.annotations contains annotations for each test retry.

Miscellaneous

• New option maxRedirects in apiRequest.newContext() to control the maximum number of redirects.
• HTML reporter now supports NOT filtering via !@​my-tag or !my-file.spec.ts or !p:my-project.

Breaking Changes

• Changes to glob URL patterns in methods like page.route():
  • ? wildcard is not supported any more, it will always match question mark ? character.
  • Ranges/sets [] are not supported anymore. We recommend using regular expressions instead.
• Method route.continue() does not allow to override the Cookie header anymore. If a Cookie header is provided, it will be ignored, and the cookie will be loaded from the browser's cookie store. To set custom cookies, use browserContext.addCookies().
• macOS 13 is now deprecated and will no longer receive WebKit updates. Please upgrade to a more recent macOS version to continue benefiting from the latest WebKit improvements.

StorageState for indexedDB

• New option indexedDB for browserContext.storageState() allows to save and restore IndexedDB contents. Useful when your application uses IndexedDB API to store authentication tokens, like Firebase Authentication.

  Here is an example following the authentication guide:

  // tests/auth.setup.ts
  import { test as setup, expect } from '@​playwright/test';
  import path from 'path';
  
  const authFile = path.join(__dirname, '../playwright/.auth/user.json');
  
  setup('authenticate', async ({ page }) => {
    await page.goto('/');
    // ... perform authentication steps ...
  
    // make sure to save indexedDB
    await page.context().storageState({ path: authFile, indexedDB: true });
  });

Copy prompt

New "Copy prompt" button on errors in the HTML report, trace viewer and UI mode. Click to copy a pre-filled LLM prompt that contains the error message and useful context for fixing the error.

Filter visible elements

New option visible for locator.filter() allows matching only visible elements.

// example.spec.ts
test('some test', async ({ page }) => {
  // Ignore invisible todo items.
  const todoItems = page.getByTestId('todo-item').filter({ visible: true });
  // Check there are exactly 3 visible ones.
  await expect(todoItems).toHaveCount(3);
});

Git information in HTML report

Set option testConfig.captureGitInfo to capture git information into testConfig.metadata.

// playwright.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from '@​playwright/test';

export default defineConfig({
  captureGitInfo: { commit: true, diff: true }
});

HTML report will show this information when available:

Test Step improvements

A new TestStepInfo object is now available in test steps. You can add step attachments or skip the step under some conditions.

test('some test', async ({ page, isMobile }) => {
  // Note the new "step" argument:
  await test.step('here is my step', async step => {
    step.skip(isMobile, 'not relevant on mobile layouts');

    // ...
    await step.attach('my attachment', { body: 'some text' });
    // ...
  });
});

Miscellaneous

• New option contrast for methods page.emulateMedia() and browser.newContext() allows to emulate the prefers-contrast media feature.
• New option failOnStatusCode makes all fetch requests made through the APIRequestContext throw on response codes other than 2xx and 3xx.
• Assertion expect(page).toHaveURL() now supports a predicate.

Browser Versions
