Videos

Playwright can record videos for all pages in a browser context. Videos are saved upon context closure, so make sure to await browserContext.close().

const context = await browser.newContext({ recordVideo: { dir: 'videos/' } });// Make sure to await close, so that videos are saved.await context.close();

You can also specify video size, it defaults to viewport size scaled down to fit 800x800.

const context = await browser.newContext({  recordVideo: {    dir: 'videos/',    size: { width: 640, height: 480 },  }});

Saved video files will appear in the specified folder. They all have generated unique names. For the multi-page scenarios, you can access the video file associated with the page via the page.video().

const path = await page.video().path();
note

Note that the video is only available after the page or browser context is closed.
