# CodeceptJS & Playwright

CodeceptJS is an end-to-end testing framework which provides support for many automation drivers, including Playwright.

To get started, please install these packages:

```bash
npm install codeceptjs playwright --save
```

To create a sample project from scratch, you can use this command:

```bash
npx codeceptjs init
```

## Configure CodeceptJS with Playwright

To configure CodeceptJS, please edit `codecept.conf.js` and make sure to add the `Playwright` helper.

```javascript
{ // ..
  helpers: {
    Playwright: {
      url: "http://localhost",
      browser: 'chromium',
      chromium: {
        browserWSEndpoint: "wss://cloud.testingbot.com?key=YOUR_KEY&secret=YOUR_SECRET",
        cdpConnection: true
      }
    }
  }
  // ..
}
```

You can use the `browserWSEndpoint` URL to instruct CodeceptJS to use TestingBot's Playwright grid to run the tests on.

## Specifying browser and version

To specify on which browser, browser version and platform your CodeceptJS + Playwright test should run, you can include both a `browserName` and `browserVersion` in the `browserWSEndpoint` URL.

Please wait while we load the available browsers and platforms.

## Run your first CodeceptJS + Playwright test

The example test below will open the TestingBot website and check to see if the word 'TestingBot' is included on the page.

```javascript
Feature('Test');

Scenario('test testingbot homepage', ({ I }) => {
  I.amOnPage('https://testingbot.com');
  I.see('TestingBot');
});
```

Now you can run this first test on TestingBot.

```bash
npx codeceptjs run --steps
```

```
Test --
  test something
    I am on page "https://testingbot.com"
    I see "TestingBot"
  ✔ OK in 1017ms

  OK | 1 passed // 10s
```

This test will appear in your [Member Dashboard](https://testingbot.com/members). Test details will include a video of the test and any logs that were generated.
