Support for Playwright Test Runner reporting now in beta

[hassy]

We just rolled out beta support for Playwright Test Runner reporting in Artillery Cloud. This lets you record Playwright HTML reports to Artillery Cloud, view and share them, and monitor Playwright Test Runner tests in real time in the Artillery Cloud dashboard.

How do I try this?

1. Sign up for an Artillery Cloud account on https://app.artillery.io and get an API key
2. Install the Artillery Cloud reporter:

   npm install -D @artilleryio/playwright-reporter

3. Enable the reporter in your playwright.config.ts file:

   const config: PlaywrightTestConfig = {
     reporter: [
       ['blob'], // required for Artillery's reporter to work
       ['@artilleryio/playwright-reporter', { name: 'My Test Suite' }],
     ],
     // ... rest of your config
   };

   Note that the built-in Blob reporter needs to be enabled.
4. Set your Artillery Cloud API key

   export ARTILLERY_CLOUD_API_KEY=a9_your_api_key

   You can create an API key in Artillery Cloud here: https://app.artillery.io/settings/api-keys

Then run your Playwright tests as normal, e.g. with:

npx playwright test

When the test starts the reporter will print the URL of the test run to the console. The URL will look like this:

https://app.artillery.io/b9j745e5cx4yrxcrb4qwpfty7p8r3/playwright/pwzxhq_abcdefabcdefghi_7atf

You can track the progress of the test run in real time in Artillery Cloud via that URL.

Once the test run completes, full report will be available, including any traces recording during the test run.

How much does this cost?

This feature is available to all users of Artillery Cloud, including those on the free Developer plan. You can record up to 100 test suite runs every month for free. Detailed pricing information is available on https://app.artillery.io/settings/billing
