This thread is trying to answer question "How can configurations be injected in Playwright similar to how it's done in Cypress using webpack preprocessor?"
Are you using component testing? If so, then we expose ctViteConfig: https://playwright.dev/docs/test-components#q-i-have-a-project-that-already-uses-vite-can-i-reuse-the-config
For normal end-to-end testing Playwright is framework agnostic and has nothing to do with your webpack, so it totally depends on your build setup which then surfaces the application you are testing.

To inject configurations in Playwright Test, you can create a configuration matrix. This matrix defines different combinations of devices or browsers for your tests. It's a centralized way to manage configurations, saving you time and effort.
Here's how you can get started:
import { chromium } from '@playwright/test';
const browser = await chromium.launch();
const page = await browser.newPage();
await page.goto('https://ray.run/');
await browser.close();
Playwright APIs are asynchronous and return Promise objects. Use the async/await pattern for better readability.
For project-specific configurations, there's currently no direct support for reusing an existing Vite config within Playwright Test. However, you can copy relevant settings from your existing Vite config into the ctViteConfig
property of the Playwright config object.
import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
test('my test', async ({ page }) => {
await page.goto('https://ray.run/');
const name = await page.innerText('.name');
expect(name).toBe('Playwright');
});
Remember, while copying path mappings and high-level settings might be possible, there may be other aspects of your Vite config that cannot be reused directly.
