🎭 Playwright
Documentation | API reference
Playwright is a Node.js library to automate Chromium, Firefox and WebKit with a single API. Playwright is built to enable cross-browser web automation that is ever-green, capable, reliable and fast.
Linux | macOS | Windows | |

WebKit 15.4 | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
Firefox 94.0.1 | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
Headless execution is supported for all the browsers on all platforms. Check out system requirements for details.
Usage
npm i -D playwright
This installs Playwright and browser binaries for Chromium, Firefox and WebKit. Once installed, you can require
Playwright in a Node.js script and automate web browser interactions.
Capabilities
Playwright is built to automate the broad and growing set of web browser capabilities used by Single Page Apps and Progressive Web Apps.
- Scenarios that span multiple page, domains and iframes
- Auto-wait for elements to be ready before executing actions (like click, fill)
- Intercept network activity for stubbing and mocking network requests
- Emulate mobile devices, geolocation, permissions
- Support for web components via shadow-piercing selectors
- Native input events for mouse and keyboard
- Upload and download files
Examples
Page screenshot
This code snippet navigates to whatsmyuseragent.org in Chromium, Firefox and WebKit, and saves 3 screenshots.
const playwright = require('playwright');
(async () => {
for (const browserType of [playwright.chromium, playwright.firefox, playwright.webkit]) {
const browser = await browserType.launch();
const context = await browser.newContext();
const page = await context.newPage();
await page.goto('http://whatsmyuseragent.org/');
await page.screenshot({ path: `example-${browserType.name()}.png` });
await browser.close();
}
})();
Mobile and geolocation
This snippet emulates Mobile Safari on a device at a given geolocation, navigates to maps.google.com, performs action and takes a screenshot.
const { webkit, devices } = require('playwright');
const iPhone11 = devices['iPhone 11 Pro'];
(async () => {
const browser = await webkit.launch();
const context = await browser.newContext({
...iPhone11,
locale: 'en-US',
geolocation: { longitude: 12.492507, latitude: 41.889938 },
permissions: ['geolocation']
});
const page = await context.newPage();
await page.goto('https://maps.google.com');
await page.click('text="Your location"');
await page.waitForRequest(/.*preview\/pwa/);
await page.screenshot({ path: 'colosseum-iphone.png' });
await browser.close();
})();
Evaluate in browser context
This code snippet navigates to example.com in Firefox, and executes a script in the page context.
const { firefox } = require('playwright');
(async () => {
const browser = await firefox.launch();
const context = await browser.newContext();
const page = await context.newPage();
await page.goto('https://www.example.com/');
const dimensions = await page.evaluate(() => {
return {
width: document.documentElement.clientWidth,
height: document.documentElement.clientHeight,
deviceScaleFactor: window.devicePixelRatio
}
});
console.log(dimensions);
await browser.close();
})();
Intercept network requests
This code snippet sets up request routing for a WebKit page to log all network requests.
const { webkit } = require('playwright');
(async () => {
const browser = await webkit.launch();
const context = await browser.newContext();
const page = await context.newPage();
// Log and continue all network requests
await page.route('**', route => {
console.log(route.request().url());
route.continue();
});
await page.goto('http://todomvc.com');
await browser.close();
})();
