Run BDD tests with Playwright runner
Tip
Try the Fix with AI button in the HTML reporter.
In the era of AI, you can take BDD approach to the next level:
- 🤖 Generate: Ask any AI model to generate feature files by raw business requirements.
- ✅ Validate: Refine the generated scenarios with AI or colleagues, collaborate in human language instead of code.
- 🛠 Automate: Use existing steps to run the tests and prevent codebase growth.
Both Playwright and CucumberJS have their own test runners. You can use the CucumberJS runner with Playwright as a library to execute BDD scenarios. This package offers an alternative: convert BDD scenarios into test files and run them directly with Playwright. You gain all the advantages of the Playwright runner:
- Automatic browser initialization and cleanup
- Auto-capture of screenshots, videos, and traces
- Parallelization with sharding
- Auto-waiting for page elements
- Built-in visual comparison testing
- Power of Playwright fixtures
- ...and more
Playwright-BDD has several unique features:
- 🔥 Advanced tagging by path and special tags
- 🎩 Step decorators for class methods
- 🎯 Scoped step definitions
- ✨ Exporting steps for AI
- ♻️ Re-usable step functions
