🖼️ WebP screenshots

page.screenshot() (playwright.dev) and locator.screenshot() (playwright.dev) can now capture screenshots in the WebP format. Playwright infers the format from a .webp file extension, or you can set the type explicitly. Quality 100 (the default) is lossless, while lower values use lossy compression:

:::python
page.screenshot(path="homepage.webp", quality=50)

New APIs

  • New scroll option ("auto" | "none") on actions to opt out of Playwright's automatic scrolling into view.
  • New locator.wait_for_function() waits until a function called with the matching element returns a truthy value.
  • New apiResponse.timing() (playwright.dev) returns resource timing information for an API response.
