Network Tab improvements

The Network tab in the UI mode and trace viewer has several nice improvements:

  • filtering by asset type and URL
  • better display of query string parameters
  • preview of font assets

Network tab now has filters

Credit to @kubajanik for these wonderful improvements!

--tsconfig CLI option

By default, Playwright will look up the closest tsconfig for each imported file using a heuristic. You can now specify a single tsconfig file in the command line, and Playwright will use it for all imported files, not only test files:

# Pass a specific tsconfig
npx playwright test --tsconfig tsconfig.test.json

APIRequestContext now accepts URLSearchParams and string as query parameters

You can now pass URLSearchParams and string as query parameters to APIRequestContext:

test('query params', async ({ request }) => {
  const searchParams = new URLSearchParams();
  searchParams.set('userId', 1);
  const response = await request.get(
      'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts',
      {
        params: searchParams // or as a string: 'userId=1'
      }
  );
  // ...
});

Miscellaneous

  • The mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.47.0 now serves a Playwright image based on Ubuntu 24.04 Noble.
    To use the 22.04 jammy-based image, please use mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.47.0-jammy instead.
  • The :latest/:focal/:jammy tag for Playwright Docker images is no longer being published. Pin to a specific version for better stability and reproducibility.
  • New option behavior in page.removeAllListeners(), browser.removeAllListeners() and browserContext.removeAllListeners() to wait for ongoing listeners to complete.
  • TLS client certificates can now be passed from memory by passing cert and key as buffers instead of file paths.
  • Attachments with a text/html content type can now be opened in a new tab in the HTML report. This is useful for including third-party reports or other HTML content in the Playwright test report and distributing it to your team.
  • noWaitAfter in locator.selectOption() was deprecated.
  • We've seen reports of WebGL in Webkit misbehaving on GitHub Actions macos-13. We recommend upgrading GitHub Actions to macos-14.
