Playwright timeline

Basics

Replay’s playwright panel is similar to the Trace Viewer, but includes functionality that’s only possible with time travel.

Inspect test steps

When you select a test step, you jump to point in time where it was executed.

Inspect step source code

Selecting a test step shows the source code where the test step is defined.

Time Travel

Jump to code

When you click the jump to code button you seek from the step action into your React component’s event handler. There’s never been a faster way to start debugging a flaky test.
