Wow! This was great! So hard to find good Playwright videos like there are for Selenium (Java, C#, Python). A few videos are out there for creating setup and teardown, but they are in the same file as the testcases are. Your video went at a good face pace and while watching it I started to notice it was about to end. You didn't yet show how to put the code in a separate file so I thought it wasn't going to be covered , but you covered it! Thanks so much!

Hi, I have started exploring playwright very recently and found your videos on the topic . Kudos for creating these :-). I have a question. If there are more than one reusable functions to use inside the test, how do you do it then?

@ChecklyHQ

Custom fixtures aren't bound to a single one. You could add more if you wanted to. :) Add more properties to the `extend` object and you're good to go. :)

@@ChecklyHQ cool. Thanks for the reply :-).

How would you see that as different from just using .before that will already run before every test. (Or login session is better put in config where playwright has options for putting it per project/browser or for default of all. Saving in a json file. )

@ChecklyHQ

Ай бұрын

It depends on the case I'd say. If you have a single `spec` file before/after does the trick for sure. And also, when it comes to saving the login logic, you also make a valid case buy saving the browser state. All that said, I often prefer fixtures, because they "hide" functionality from my spec files. I don't have to worry about fiddling with before/after or anything. Additionally, I can also configure them with fixture options. Implementing fixtures just feel like a "native Playwright approach". And I like this a lot. But, of course and as always, it's a classical "it depends" and a matter of taste. ;)

Very nice and informative video. Did you put your codes anywhere in Github? could you please give its link to us?

is there a way we can enable and disable the fixture based on run time values like flag to enable or disable? Scenario: if the login/SSO is required for higher env's and not for lower env

@stefanjudis

Жыл бұрын

Enabling and disabling fixtures doesn't feel right to me. I'd rather make the fixture behave differently depending on run time flags. :) Hope this helps.

What’s the advantage of using a fixture as opposed to a regular function? You could simply define const login = async (page) => { // Do all the stuff } and then simply call `await login(page)` at the beginning of the test.

@stefanjudis

Жыл бұрын

That's right Guillaume and a great question. In this simple example scenario, a helper method definitely works. 👍 Fixtures enable you to follow the PW conventions and group helper/utility code like the framework does. I consider this to be a great advantage. Additionally, and considering your example: if you'd want to perform a teardown action (maybe you want to log out after) you'd already have two methods to pull in every test case and the number of util functions grows. With a fixture-based approach, you could put setup (before the 'use' call), the action and teardowns (after the 'use' call) into a single place. Hope this helps. :)

nice video

Very nice channel with good and simple explanations! How does this compare to a Page Object method? Is it better to use one over the other or maybe in combination?

@stefanjudis

Жыл бұрын

Thanks Aleksandar. I don't think it's an either-or decision. Fixtures play nicely with POMs. I see their main advantage in being to use "native PW functionality" and the ability to have setups / teardowns next to the code running in your tests. So if you're POMs have some sort of required clean-up steps, i'd def go for a fixture setup. Hope this helps!

What if you want to have two fixtures in differnt files... you can't import them as they are extend test

@ChecklyHQ

You could always structure your project to use different fixture with different exported `test` object. And depending on the fixture differences you could also make fixtures configurable with fixture options. It's a bit tough to give advice without knowing specific. :)

thanks the videos Is there possible that we use different storagestate inside one test between test.steps? e.g.: test.step.use({storageState: '1.json '})... test.step.use({storageState: '2.json '})?

Hey Dániel, I just had a look and I don't think that's possible. But if you're testing your sites with two different states (such as a regular and admin one) I'd also favor fixtures. `test('something', ({page, AdminPage})` Hope this helps. :)

@ChecklyHQ

This doesn't sound like a fixture case for me. I'd instead extract the logic into a separate function for the case of evaluating text in the clipboard. That said, you could always change the fixture to be a nested object or a function. It's up to you what to call `use` with. :)
