#4 – How to Use Playwright- TypeScript to Script a Login Page and Launch Chrome, Chromium, Firefox, or WebKit

The first step to writing a Playwright login script is to launch the browser, navigate to the URL, and set up locators for the username, password, and login button. Then, fill in the username and password, click the login button, and verify the homepage title. Don’t forget to take a screenshot for verification. Make sure to use async/await properly to handle all the asynchronous actions. Once everything is done, close the browser and test it with different browsers for a successful login. Happy scripting! 🚀

#4 – Login Page Script With Playwright- TypeScript ||How To Launch Chrome, Chromium, Firefox, WebKit

📝 Welcome back to Nav Labs! In this video, we’ll talk about how to create a Playwright login script. In this application, you can simply go to the URL automationlabs.com/opencart, navigate to the login page, enter the password, and verify that the URL is correct. We’ll cover how to write the first basic line of code to launch the URL and work with TypeScript in Visual Code.

Getting Started With Playwright

Launching Browsers with Playwright

We’ll start by understanding the basic steps and manual steps we usually take in Selenium. We’ll use Playwright to open the browser, navigate to a URL, create locators, and perform actions using the elements.

Importing Libraries

In TypeScript, it’s essential to import the necessary libraries and declare variables. We’ll use the Playwright test and browser libraries to interact with browsers.

Writing the Login Script

Launching the Browser

We’ll write TypeScript to launch Firefox and create a new page in the browser to start interacting with web elements.

Performing Actions

Using the locators, we’ll find the email and password fields, then perform actions such as filling in the details and clicking the login button.

Verifying the Results

After performing the actions, we’ll capture the homepage title, take a screenshot, and verify the results by inspecting the page title.

Running the Script

Finally, we’ll run the script with different browsers, such as Firefox, Chromium, and WebKit, and check the test results.

Conclusion

In this video, we covered the basics of creating a Playwright login script using TypeScript. We also learned how to interact with web elements and verify results. Stay tuned for more videos and tutorials on TypeScript and automation testing!

Key Takeaways

  • Playwright allows us to interact with web elements more efficiently
  • TypeScript provides type safety and better code organization

Have a great day and see you in the next video. God bless! 🌟
