GitHub Action
Run Playwright tests
v1.5.0
Set up GitHub Actions to run cross-browser tests on Chromium, WebKit and Firefox with Playwright.
We recommend using Playwright CLI instead of this action.
Since v1.8.0 Playwright includes CLI that installs all required browser dependencies. To install dependencies with CLI:
$ npx playwright install-deps # install dependencies for all browsers
$ npx playwright install-deps chromium # install dependencies for Chromium only
If something doesn't work, please let us know!
Add uses: microsoft/playwright-github-action@v1
to the GitHub workflow definition before running your tests.

This GitHub Action can be combined with the Upload Artifact action to upload test artifacts (like screenshots or logs).
