cypress-playwright

Run Cypress tests using Playwright and Playwright tests using Cypress

This package provides a bridge between Cypress and Playwright test runners. You can execute Cy tests using Pw and the inverse.

Install

# install this package using NPM
$ npm i -D cypress-playwright
# or using Yarn
$ yarn add -D cypress-playwright

If using Cypress, add this package to your Cypress support file

// cypress/support/e2e.js
import 'cypress-playwright'

Voilá you can now run your Playwright tests in Cypress and Cypress tests in Playwright! Plus use await keyword with all Cypress commands:

// Cypress spec
await it('works', async () => {
  await cy.visit('/')
  const $el = await cy.get('selector')
  expect($el).to.be.visible
  // or use "should" assertions
  $el.should.be.visible
})

Want to open 2nd tab and test your chat application? No problem!

// Cypress spec
cy.get('selector button').click() // opens the second tab
// use PW syntax to wait for the 2nd tab to open
const secondPage = await context.waitForEvent('page')
await newPage.waitForLoadState()
// continue using Cy to test the second page
cy.get('selector on the second tab').type('something')
// now close the 2nd page and switch to the first
cy.get('close button selector').click()
// or simply use
await newPage.close()
// we are back on the first page!
