Playwright CLI is the official command-line interface for Playwright, a powerful cross-browser automation and end-to-end testing framework that lets developers write and run tests reliably across Chromium, WebKit, and Firefox. The CLI provides an easy entry point for creating new test projects, running test suites, generating test traces, and debugging issues directly from the terminal. Developers can scaffold test files, record browser interactions as code, and run tests in headless or headed modes without needing a complex setup, dramatically reducing the barrier to writing robust UI tests. Playwright-CLI includes utilities for running tests in parallel across multiple devices, capturing screenshots and videos on failures, and outputting detailed reports that help diagnose flaky behavior or regressions. It also integrates with CI/CD pipelines, making it simple to automate testing as part of build and deployment workflows.
