Drunk Tester Manual

A CLI tool for recording and replaying browser interactions using Playwright.

Installation

This opens a browser and shows a recording overlay. Interact with the page and use the overlay buttons to control recording.

Videos on Failures

Playwright is configured to record videos and automatically keep them only for failed tests. Videos are saved in the playwright-report/data/ directory with unique names for each failed test.

Generated Tests

Tests are saved in tests/ directory as Playwright test files. Each recording session creates one test suite with multiple tests.

Requirements

• Node.js 14.0.0+
• Playwright browsers (installed automatically)
