Playwright Testing

Running your first Playwright test

To run your first test, please use this example:

const pw = require('playwright');

(async () => {
  const browser = await pw.chromium.connectOverCDP({
    wsEndpoint: 'wss://chrome.headlesstesting.com?token=[YOUR-TOKEN]',
  });
  const context = await browser.newContext();
  const page = await context.newPage();

  await page.goto('https://headlesstesting.com/');
  await page.screenshot({ path: 'screenshot.png' });

  await browser.close();
})();

const pw = require('playwright');

(async () => {
  const browser = await pw.chromium.connectOverCDP({
    wsEndpoint: 'wss://edge.headlesstesting.com?token=[YOUR-TOKEN]',
  });
  const context = await browser.newContext();
  const page = await context.newPage();

  await page.goto('https://headlesstesting.com/');
  await page.screenshot({ path: 'screenshot.png' });

  await browser.close();
})();

Updating your existing Playwright scripts

With a Playwright test, you'll usually start a browser with await pw.chromium.launch()

To start using our service, simply replace this line with our browser endpoint:

Before

const browser = await pw.chromium.launch();

After

await pw.chromium.connectOverCDP({
    wsEndpoint: 'wss://chrome.headlesstesting.com?token=[YOUR-TOKEN]',
});

Browser Compatibility

You'll need to specify a different browserVersion, depending on the Playwright version you are using:

Chrome:

Firefox

Currently, Firefox is not working very well with Playwright.
Once we have a stable solution, we will update the section of this page.
