Chrome for Testing
Starting with this release, Playwright switches from Chromium, to using Chrome for Testing builds. Both headed and headless browsers are subject to this. Your tests should still be passing after upgrading to Playwright 1.57.
We're expecting no functional changes to come from this switch. The biggest change is the new icon and title in your toolbar.
If you still see an unexpected behaviour change, please file an issue.
On Arm64 Linux, Playwright continues to use Chromium.
Breaking Change
After 3 years of being deprecated, we removed page.accessibility() from our API. Please use other libraries such as Axe if you need to test page accessibility. See our Node.js guide for integration with Axe.
New APIs
- worker. onConsole event is emitted when JavaScript within the worker calls one of console API methods, e.g. console.log or console.dir.
Worker.waitForConsoleMessage()can be used to wait for it. - locator.description() returns locator description previously set with locator.describe().
- New option
stepsin locator.click() and locator.dragTo() that configures the number ofmousemoveevents emitted while moving the mouse pointer to the target element.
