Testing with Playwright¶

Playwright’s tagline:

Fast and Reliable End-to-End Testing for Modern Web Apps

A couple of great videos to get you warmed up:

• End-to-End Testing Django Applications Using Pytest With Playwright by Jacob Rief

• Playwright for Django Demo - Workshop Content by Sheena O’Connell.

Then some links:

• Hello Playwright.md. Again from Sheena. Part of her multipart Modern frontends with Django and HTMX tutorial.

• Pytest-Django Documentation

• Playwright Python Docs

• Pytest Documentation

And an example tox config to get up and running:

[testenv:playwright]
basepython = python3.13
skip_install = true
deps =
    -r requirements.txt
    pytest
    pytest-django
    pytest-playwright

commands=
    playwright install
    python -Wall -m pytest --reuse-db {posargs}
