## Version 1.12
|
|
|
|
#### 🧟♂️ Introducing Playwright Trace Viewer
|
|
|
|
[Playwright Trace Viewer](./trace-viewer.md) is a new GUI tool that helps exploring recorded Playwright traces after the script ran. Playwright traces let you examine:
|
|
- page DOM before and after each Playwright action
|
|
- page rendering before and after each Playwright action
|
|
- browser network during script execution
|
|
|
|
Traces are recorded using the new [`property: BrowserContext.tracing`] API:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
browser = chromium.launch()
|
|
context = browser.new_context()
|
|
|
|
# Start tracing before creating / navigating a page.
|
|
context.tracing.start(screenshots=True, snapshots=True)
|
|
|
|
page.goto("https://playwright.dev")
|
|
|
|
# Stop tracing and export it into a zip archive.
|
|
context.tracing.stop(path = "trace.zip")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Traces are examined later with the Playwright CLI:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
playwright show-trace trace.zip
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
That will open the following GUI:
|
|
|
|
