Run mocha, zora, uvu, tape and benchmark.js scripts inside real browsers with
playwright.
pnpm install playwright-testplaywright-test [files] [options]
# or
pw-test [files] [options]
Description
Run mocha, zora, uvu, tape and benchmark.js scripts inside real browsers with `playwright` and in Node.
Usage
$ playwright-test [files] [options]
Options
-r, --runner Test runner. Options: mocha, tape, zora, uvu, none, taps and benchmark. Internal runners are autodetected by default. It also accepts a path to a module or a module ID that exports a `playwrightTestRunner` object.
-b, --browser Browser to run tests. Options: chromium, firefox, webkit. (default chromium)
-m, --mode Run mode. Options: main, worker and node. (default main)
-d, --debug Debug mode, keeps browser window open. (default false)
-w, --watch Watch files for changes and re-run tests.
-i, --incognito Use incognito window to run tests. (default false)
-e, --extension Use extension background_page to run tests. (default false)
--cov Enable code coverage in istanbul format. Outputs '.nyc_output/coverage-pw.json'. (default false)
--report-dir Where to output code coverage in instanbul format. (default .nyc_output)
--before Path to a script to be loaded on a separate tab before the main script.
--sw Path to a script to be loaded in a service worker.
--assets Folder with assets to be served by the http server. (default process.cwd())
--cwd Current directory. (default /Users/hd/code/playwright-test)
--extensions File extensions allowed in the bundle. (default js,cjs,mjs,ts,tsx)
--config Path to the config file
-v, --version Displays current version
-h, --help Displays this message
Examples
$ playwright-test test.js --runner tape
$ playwright-test test --debug
$ playwright-test "test/**/*.spec.js" --browser webkit --mode worker --incognito --debug
$ playwright-test bench.js --runner benchmark
# Uses benchmark.js to run your benchmark see playwright-test/mocks/benchmark.js for an example.
$ playwright-test test --cov && npx nyc report --reporter=html
# Enable code coverage in istanbul format which can be used by nyc.
$ playwright-test "test/**/*.spec.js" --debug --before ./mocks/before.js
# Run a script in a separate tab. Check ./mocks/before.js for an example.
# Important: You need to call `self.PW_TEST.beforeEnd()` to start the main script.
Runner Options
All arguments passed to the cli not listed above will be fowarded to the runner.
$ playwright-test test.js --runner mocha --bail --grep 'should fail'
To send a `false` flag use --no-bail.
Check https://mochajs.org/api/mocha for `mocha` options or `npx mocha --help`.
Notes
DEBUG env var filtering for 'debug' package logging will work as expected.
$ DEBUG:app playwright-test test.js
Do not let your shell expand globs, always wrap them.
$ playwright-test "test/**" GOOD
$ playwright-test test/** BADThis client package exposes the playwright-test options and some Playwright browser context methods to be used in tests.
import * as Client from 'playwright-test/client'

})All test runners support automatic flow control, which means you don't need to call special function or trigger any event in your tests to stop the run. The none runner does not support flow control.
To manually stop the run you can use process.exit:
process.exit(0) // stops the run and exits with success
process.exit(1) // stops the run and exits with failureYou can define a custom test runner by passing a path to a file or a node module id that exports an object called playwrightTestRunner that implements the TestRunner interface.
$ playwright-test test.js --runner ./my-runner.js
# or
$ playwright-test test.js --runner my-runner
You can also just define you test runner in the config file.
// playwright-test.config.js
/** @type {import('../src/runner.js').RunnerOptions} */
const config = {
testRunner: {
compileRuntime: (options, paths) => {
return `
import mocha from 'mocha/mocha.js'
mocha.setup({
reporter: 'spec',
timeout: 5000,
ui: 'bdd',
})
${paths.map((url) => `await import('${url}')`).join('\n')}
mocha
.run((f) =>{
process.exit(f)
})
`
},
},
}
export default configexport interface TestRunner {
/**
* Module ID name used to import the test runner runtime.
* Used in auto detection of the test runner.
*/
moduleId: string
/**
* Options made available to the compiled runtime.
* This is useful to pass options to the test runner.
*
* @example
* ```js
* const options = JSON.parse(process.env.PW_OPTIONS)
* const testRunnerOptions = options.testRunner.options
* ```
*/
options?: unknown
/**
* Esbuild config for the test runner
*/
buildConfig?: BuildOptions
/**

*
* @param options - Runner options

compileRuntime: (options: RunnerOptions, testPaths: string[]) => string
}The config file needs to be commonjs for now, so if your package is pure ESM you need to use
.cjsextension.
Configuration can be done with cli flags or config files.
package.json, // using property `pw-test` or `playwright-test`
.playwright-testrc.json,
.playwright-testrc.js,
.playwright-testrc.cjs,
playwright-test.config.js,
playwright-test.config.cjs,
.pw-testrc.json,
.pw-testrc.js,
.pw-testrc.cjs,
pw-test.config.js,
pw-test.config.cjs,
.config/playwright-testrc.json
.config/playwright-testrc.js
.config/playwright-testrc.cjs
.config/pw-testrc.json
.config/pw-testrc.js
.config/pw-testrc.cjs
The config type can be imported from the entrypoint.
/** @type {import('playwright-test').RunnerOptions} */
const config = {
// ...
}
export default configThe config file can also export a function that receives the cli options as argument.
/** @type {import('playwright-test').ConfigFn} */
function buildConfig(cliOptions) {
return {
buildConfig: {
bundle: cliOptions.mode !== 'node',
