release 1.21
Playwright v1.21 updates

Highlights

  • New experimental role selectors that allow selecting elements by their ARIA role, ARIA attributes and accessible name.

    // Click a button with accessible name "log in"
    await page.click('role=button[name="log in"]')

    To use role selectors, make sure to pass PLAYWRIGHT_EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURES=1 environment variable:

    // playwright.config.js
    process.env.PLAYWRIGHT_EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURES = '1';
    module.exports = {
      /* ... */
    };

    Read more in our documentation.

  • New scale option in Page.screenshot for smaller sized screenshots.

  • New caret option in Page.screenshot to control text caret. Defaults to "hide".

  • New method expect.poll to wait for an arbitrary condition:

    // Poll the method until it returns an expected result.
    await expect.poll(async () => {
      const response = await page.request.get('https://api.example.com');
      return response.status();
    }).toBe(200);

    expect.poll supports most synchronous matchers, like .toBe(), .toContain(), etc.

Behavior Changes

    as a Playwright-ready docker image with pre-installed Python.
  • Playwright now supports large file uploads (100s of MBs) via Locator.setInputFiles API.
