# Change desktop screen resolution with Playwright

The TestingBot Desktop VMs (Windows, macOS and Linux) all support changing the screen-resolution before a test starts.

We currently support the following screen resolutions:

 Value Type | Default Value | || string | "1280x1024" | Platform \| Resolutions \|\| Windows/Linux \| - 800x600 - 1024x768 - 1152x864 - 1280x768 - 1280x800 - 1280x960 - 1280x1024 - 1400x1050 - 1600x1200 - 1680x1050 - 1920x1080 - 1920x1200 - 2560x1440 \| \| macOS \| - 800x600 - 1024x768 - 1280x768 - 1280x800 - 1280x960 - 1280x1024 - 1366x768 - 1440x900 - 1600x900 - 1600x1200 - 1680x1050 - 1920x1080 - 1920x1200 - 2048x1536 \| |

To change the screen resolution, please specify the `screen-resolution` parameter in the `browserWSEndpoint` URL.

```javascript
const pw = require('playwright-core');

(async () => {
  const browser = await pw.chromium.connect({
    wsEndpoint: 'wss://cloud.testingbot.com/playwright?key=api_key&secret=api_secret&browserName=chrome&browserVersion=latest&screen-resolution=1600x900',
  });
  const context = await browser.newContext();
  const page = await context.newPage();

  await page.goto('https://testingbot.com/');
  await page.screenshot({ path: 'screenshot.png' });

  await browser.close();
})();
```

Changing the screen resolution does not resize the viewport. To change the viewport with Playwright, please use `page.setViewportSize`.
