Release notes
Version 1.33
Locators Update
Use locator.or_() to create a locator that matches either of the two locators. Consider a scenario where you'd like to click on a "New email" button, but sometimes a security settings dialog shows up instead. In this case, you can wait for either a "New email" button, or a dialog and act accordingly:
new_email = page.get_by_role("button", name="New email")
dialog = page.get_by_text("Confirm security settings")
expect(new_email.or_(dialog)).is_visible()
if (dialog.is_visible())
page.get_by_role("button", name="Dismiss").click()
new_email.click()Use new options
has_not
andhas_not_text
in locator.filter() to find elements that do not match certain conditions.row_locator = page.locator("tr")
row_locator
.filter(has_not_text="text in column 1")
.filter(has_not=page.get_by_role("button", name="column 2 button"))
.screenshot()Use new web-first assertion expect(locator).to_be_attached() to ensure that the element is present in the page's DOM. Do not confuse with the expect(locator).to_be_visible() that ensures that element is both attached & visible.

Version 1.27
Locators
With these new APIs writing locators is a joy:
- page.get_by_text() to locate by text content.
- page.get_by_role() to locate by ARIA role, ARIA attributes and accessible name.
- page.get_by_label() to locate a form control by associated label's text.
- page.get_by_test_id() to locate an element based on its
data-testid
attribute (other attribute can be configured). - page.get_by_placeholder() to locate an input by placeholder.
- page.get_by_alt_text() to locate an element, usually image, by its text alternative.
- page.get_by_title() to locate an element by its title.
page.get_by_label("User Name").fill("John")
page.get_by_label("Password").fill("secret-password")
page.get_by_role("button", name="Sign in").click()
expect(page.get_by_text("Welcome, John!")).to_be_visible()
All the same methods are also available on Locator, FrameLocator and Frame classes.
Other highlights
- As announced in v1.25, Ubuntu 18 will not be supported as of Dec 2022. In addition to that, there will be no WebKit updates on Ubuntu 18 starting from the next Playwright release.
Behavior Changes
- expect(locator).to_have_attribute() with an empty value does not match missing attribute anymore. For example, the following snippet will succeed when
button
does not have adisabled
attribute.
Browser Versions
- Chromium 107.0.5304.18
- Mozilla Firefox 105.0.1
- WebKit 16.0
This version was also tested against the following stable channels:
- Google Chrome 106
- Microsoft Edge 106
Version 1.26
Assertions
- New option
enabled
for expect(locator).to_be_enabled(). - expect(locator).to_have_text() now pierces open shadow roots.
- New option
editable
for expect(locator).to_be_editable(). - New option
visible
for expect(locator).to_be_visible().
Other highlights
- New option
max_redirects
for api_request_context.get() and others to limit redirect count. - Python 3.11 is now supported.
Behavior Change
A bunch of Playwright APIs already support the wait_until: "domcontentloaded"
option. For example:
page.goto("https://playwright.dev", wait_until="domcontentloaded")
Prior to 1.26, this would wait for all iframes to fire the DOMContentLoaded
event.
To align with web specification, the 'domcontentloaded'
value only waits for the target frame to fire the 'DOMContentLoaded'
event. Use wait_until="load"
to wait for all iframes.

New introduction docs
We rewrote our Getting Started docs to be more end-to-end testing focused. Check them out on playwright.dev.
Version 1.23
Network Replay
Now you can record network traffic into a HAR file and re-use this traffic in your tests.
To record network into HAR file:
npx playwright open --save-har=github.har.zip https://github.com/microsoft
Alternatively, you can record HAR programmatically:
context = browser.new_context(record_har_path="github.har.zip")
# ... do stuff ...
context.close()
context = await browser.new_context(record_har_path="github.har.zip")
# ... do stuff ...
await context.close()
Use the new methods page.route_from_har() or browser_context.route_from_har() to serve matching responses from the HAR file:
context.route_from_har("github.har.zip")
await context.route_from_har("github.har.zip")
Read more in our documentation.
Advanced Routing
You can now use route.fallback() to defer routing to other handlers.
Consider the following example:
# Remove a header from all requests
def remove_header_handler(route: Route) -> None:
headers = route.request.all_headers()
if "if-none-match" in headers:
del headers["if-none-match"]
route.fallback(headers=headers)
page.route("**/*", remove_header_handler)
# Abort all images
def abort_images_handler(route: Route) -> None:
if route.request.resource_type == "image":
route.abort()
else:
route.fallback()
page.route("**/*", abort_images_handler)
# Remove a header from all requests
async def remove_header_handler(route: Route) -> None:
headers = await route.request.all_headers()
if "if-none-match" in headers:
del headers["if-none-match"]
await route.fallback(headers=headers)
await page.route("**/*", remove_header_handler)
# Abort all images
async def abort_images_handler(route: Route) -> None:
if route.request.resource_type == "image":
await route.abort()
else:
await route.fallback()
await page.route("**/*", abort_images_handler)
Note that the new methods page.route_from_har() and browser_context.route_from_har() also participate in routing and could be deferred to.
Web-First Assertions Update
- New method expect(locator).to_have_values() that asserts all selected values of
<select multiple>
element. - Methods expect(locator).to_contain_text() and expect(locator).to_have_text() now accept
ignore_case
option.
Miscellaneous
If there's a service worker that's in your way, you can now easily disable it with a new context option
service_workers
:context = browser.new_context(service_workers="block")
page = context.new_page()context = await browser.new_context(service_workers="block")
page = await context.new_page()Using
.zip
path forrecordHar
context option automatically zips the resulting HAR:context = browser.new_context(record_har_path="github.har.zip")
context = await browser.new_context(record_har_path="github.har.zip")
If you intend to edit HAR by hand, consider using the
"minimal"
HAR recording mode that only records information that is essential for replaying:context = browser.new_context(record_har_mode="minimal", record_har_path="har.har")
context = await browser.new_context(record_har_mode="minimal", record_har_path="har.har")
Playwright now runs on Ubuntu 22 amd64 and Ubuntu 22 arm64.
Version 1.22

Version 1.18
API Testing
Playwright for Python 1.18 introduces new API Testing that lets you send requests to the server directly from Python! Now you can:
- test your server API
- prepare server side state before visiting the web application in a test
- validate server side post-conditions after running some actions in the browser
To do a request on behalf of Playwright's Page, use new page.request API:
# Do a GET request on behalf of page
res = page.request.get("http://example.com/foo.json")
# Do a GET request on behalf of page
res = await page.request.get("http://example.com/foo.json")
Read more in our documentation.
Web-First Assertions
Playwright for Python 1.18 introduces Web-First Assertions.
Consider the following example:
from playwright.sync_api import Page, expect
def test_status_becomes_submitted(page: Page) -> None:
# ..
page.locator("#submit-button").click()
expect(page.locator(".status")).to_have_text("Submitted")
from playwright.async_api import Page, expect
async def test_status_becomes_submitted(page: Page) -> None:
# ..
await page.locator("#submit-button").click()
await expect(page.locator(".status")).to_have_text("Submitted")
Playwright will be re-testing the node with the selector .status
until fetched Node has the "Submitted"
text. It will be re-fetching the node and checking it over and over, until the condition is met or until the timeout is reached. You can pass this timeout as an option.
Read more in our documentation.
Locator Improvements
Each locator can now be optionally filtered by the text it contains:
page.locator("li", has_text="my item").locator("button").click()
await page.locator("li", has_text="my item").locator("button").click()
Read more in locator documentation
New APIs & changes
accept_downloads
option now defaults toTrue

- WebKit 15.4
This version was also tested against the following stable channels:
- Google Chrome 97
- Microsoft Edge 97
Version 1.17
Frame Locators
Playwright 1.17 introduces frame locators - a locator to the iframe on the page. Frame locators capture the logic sufficient to retrieve the iframe
and then locate elements in that iframe. Frame locators are strict by default, will wait for iframe
to appear and can be used in Web-First assertions.
Frame locators can be created with either page.frame_locator() or locator.frame_locator() method.
locator = page.frame_locator("my-frame").locator("text=Submit")
locator.click()
Read more at our documentation.
Trace Viewer Update
Playwright Trace Viewer is now available online at https://trace.playwright.dev! Just drag-and-drop your trace.zip
file to inspect its contents.
NOTE: trace files are not uploaded anywhere; trace.playwright.dev is a progressive web application that processes traces locally.
- Playwright Test traces now include sources by default (these could be turned off with tracing option)
- Trace Viewer now shows test name
- New trace metadata tab with browser details
- Snapshots now have URL bar

Version 1.15
🖱️ Mouse Wheel
By using Page.mouse.wheel
you are now able to scroll vertically or horizontally.
📜 New Headers API
Previously it was not possible to get multiple header values of a response. This is now possible and additional helper functions are available:
- Request.all_headers()
- Request.headers_array()
- Request.header_value(name: str)
- Response.all_headers()

CSS media feature by passing it in the context options or calling Page.emulate_media().
New APIs
- Page.route() accepts new
times
option to specify how many times this route should be matched. - Page.set_checked(selector: str, checked: bool) and Locator.set_checked(selector: str, checked: bool) was introduced to set the checked state of a checkbox.
- Request.sizes() Returns resource size information for given http request.
- BrowserContext.tracing.start_chunk() - Start a new trace chunk.
- BrowserContext.tracing.stop_chunk() - Stops a new trace chunk.
Browser Versions
- Chromium 96.0.4641.0
- Mozilla Firefox 92.0

Version 1.14
⚡️ New "strict" mode
Selector ambiguity is a common problem in automation testing. "strict" mode ensures that your selector points to a single element and throws otherwise.
Pass strict=true
into your action calls to opt in.
# This will throw if you have more than one button!
page.click("button", strict=True)
📍 New Locators API
Locator represents a view to the element(s) on the page. It captures the logic sufficient to retrieve the element at any given moment.
The difference between the Locator and ElementHandle is that the latter points to a particular element, while Locator captures the logic of how to retrieve that element.
Also, locators are "strict" by default!
locator = page.locator("button")
locator.click()
Learn more in the documentation.
🧩 Experimental React and Vue selector engines
React and Vue selectors allow selecting elements by its component name and/or property values. The syntax is very similar to attribute selectors and supports all attribute selector operators.
page.locator("_react=SubmitButton[enabled=true]").click()
page.locator("_vue=submit-button[enabled=true]").click()
Learn more in the react selectors documentation and the vue selectors documentation.
✨ New nth
and visible
selector engines
nth
selector engine is equivalent to the:nth-match
pseudo class, but could be combined with other selector engines.visible
selector engine is equivalent to the:visible
pseudo class, but could be combined with other selector engines.
# select the first button among all buttons
button.click("button >> nth=0")
# or if you are using locators, you can use first, nth() and last
page.locator("button").first.click()
# click a visible button
button.click("button >> visible=true")

🧟♂️ Introducing Playwright Trace Viewer
Playwright Trace Viewer is a new GUI tool that helps exploring recorded Playwright traces after the script ran. Playwright traces let you examine:
- page DOM before and after each Playwright action
- page rendering before and after each Playwright action
- browser network during script execution
Traces are recorded using the new browser_context.tracing API:
browser = chromium.launch()
context = browser.new_context()
# Start tracing before creating / navigating a page.
context.tracing.start(screenshots=True, snapshots=True)
page.goto("https://playwright.dev")
# Stop tracing and export it into a zip archive.
context.tracing.stop(path = "trace.zip")
Traces are examined later with the Playwright CLI:
playwright show-trace trace.zip
That will open the following GUI:
