Playwright Dart

A complete Dart port of Playwright — fast, reliable browser automation for Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit.

100% API parity with Node.js Playwright v1.60.0, including network interception, tracing, CDP sessions, and the full Locator API.

Features

• 🚀 Launch & control Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit
• 🎯 Locator API with getByRole, getByText, getByLabel, and more
• 🌐 Network interception — abort, mock, and modify requests
• 📸 Screenshots & PDFs — capture pages in any format
• 🔍 Tracing — record and view traces in the Playwright Trace Viewer
• ⚡ Auto-downloads Playwright driver and browser binaries

Installation

dependencies:
  playwright_dart: ^0.1.0

Quick Start

import 'package:playwright_dart/playwright_dart.dart';

void main() async {
  final playwright = await Playwright.create();
  final browser = await playwright.chromium.launch();
  final page = await browser.newPage();

  await page.goto('https://playwright.dev');
  await page.getByRole('link', name: 'Get started').click();
  await page.screenshot(path: 'screenshot.png');

  await browser.close();
}

Locators

Playwright's robust Locator API is fully supported:

// By role
await page.getByRole('button', name: 'Submit').click();

// By text
await page.getByText('Welcome').isVisible();

// By label
await page.getByLabel('Email').fill('[e-mail]');

// By test ID
await page.getByTestId('nav-menu').click();

// Chaining
await page.locator('nav').getByText('Docs').click();

// State assertions
final isVisible = await page.locator('.modal').isVisible();
final text = await page.locator('h1').textContent();

Network Interception

Intercept, mock, or abort network requests:

// Block all images
await page.route('**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg}', (route) async {
  await route.abort();
});

// Mock an API response
await page.route('**/api/users', (route) async {
  await route.fulfill(
    status: 200,
    headers: {'content-type': 'application/json'},
    body: '{"users": [{"name": "Alice"}]}',
  );
});

Tracing

Record traces for debugging with the Playwright Trace Viewer:

await browser.startTracing(page: page, screenshots: true);
await page.goto('https://example.com');
final trace = await browser.stopTracing();
// Save trace bytes to a .zip file and open with: npx playwright show-trace trace.zip

CDP Session

Access the Chrome DevTools Protocol directly:

final session = await context.newCDPSession(page);
await session.send('Network.enable');
await session.send('Performance.enable');
