pytest-playwright-enhanced 0.1.3

A pytest plugin for playwright python

pytest-playwright-enhanced

[!CAUTION] pytest-playwright-enhanced is in the alpha stage.

pytest-playwright-enhanced is a batteries included pytest plugin for the playwright python bindings that offers extended functionality with a focus on removing boilerplate code for projects that wish to test modern web applications and APIs. pytest-playwright-enhanced plans to offer the following:

• Automatic, browser management and installation if required (TBD)
• Improved, human readable APIs that build on top of playwrights API.
• Improved artifacting and debugability.
• Asynchronous support.
• Custom hooks to allow you to plugin and modify behaviour at runtime.
• Much More...

pytest-playwright-enhanced is currently implementing core plugin functionality, the main enhancements will follow shortly.

pytest-playwright-enhanced right now treats browsers, contexts and pages at a function level. This allows easily per test overrides at the small cost of slightly less performance creating browsers, for now it is worth it as it offers much more flexibility and user defined configurations.
