🌍 Multiple Web Servers in `playwright.config.ts`

Launch multiple web servers, databases, or other processes by passing an array of configurations:

// playwright.config.ts
import type { PlaywrightTestConfig } from '@playwright/test';
const config: PlaywrightTestConfig = {
  webServer: [
    {
      command: 'npm run start',
      port: 3000,
      timeout: 120 * 1000,
      reuseExistingServer: !process.env.CI,
    },
    {
      command: 'npm run backend',
      port: 3333,
      timeout: 120 * 1000,
      reuseExistingServer: !process.env.CI,
    }
  ],
  use: {
    baseURL: 'http://localhost:3000/',
  },
};
export default config;

🐂 Debian 11 Bullseye Support

Playwright now supports Debian 11 Bullseye on x86_64 for Chromium, Firefox and WebKit. Let us know
if you encounter any issues!

Linux support looks like this:

	Ubuntu 18.04	Ubuntu 20.04	Ubuntu 22.04	Debian 11
Chromium	✅	✅	✅	✅
WebKit	✅	✅	✅	✅
Firefox	✅	✅	✅	✅

🕵️ Anonymous Describe

It is now possible to call test.describe(callback) to create suites without a title. This is useful for giving a group of tests a common option with test.use(options).

test.describe(() => {
  test.use({ colorScheme: 'dark' });

  test('one', async ({ page }) => {
    // ...
  });

  test('two', async ({ page }) => {
    // ...
  });
});

🧩 Component Tests Update

Playwright 1.24 Component Tests introduce beforeMount and afterMount hooks.
Use these to configure your app for tests.

For example, this could be used to setup App router in Vue.js:

// src/component.spec.ts
import { test } from '@playwright/experimental-ct-vue';
import { Component } from './mycomponent';

test('should work', async ({ mount }) => {
  const component = await mount(Component, {
    hooksConfig: {
      /* anything to configure your app */
    }
  });
});

// playwright/index.ts
import { router } from '../router';
import { beforeMount } from '@playwright/experimental-ct-vue/hooks';

beforeMount(async ({ app, hooksConfig }) => {
  app.use(router);
});

A similar configuration in Next.js would look like this:

// src/component.spec.jsx
import { test } from '@playwright/experimental-ct-react';
import { Component } from './mycomponent';

test('should work', async ({ mount }) => {
  const component = await mount(<Component></Component>, {
    // Pass mock value from test into `beforeMount`.
    hooksConfig: {
      router: {
        query: { page: 1, per_page: 10 },
        asPath: '/posts'
      }
    }
  });
});

// playwright/index.js
import router from 'next/router';
import { beforeMount } from '@playwright/experimental-ct-react/hooks';

beforeMount(async ({ hooksConfig }) => {
  // Before mount, redefine useRouter to return mock value from test.
  router.useRouter = () => hooksConfig.router;
});
