Configuring PlayWright and Jest returns 'Playwright Test needs to be invoked via 'npx playwright test' and excluded from Jest test runs'

I reckon that what you want to do is to run tests that are generated using playwright codegen with Jest.

However, this does not seem to be possible: The tests are generated with import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test' at the top, and this is the module that throws the error. The tests that are generated with Playwright use the API from this module, and this is slightly different than the one from Jest. (It gets fixtures as parameters).

If you use the implementation from Playwright (for instance by mocking away the throwIfRunningInsideJest function), it still won't work because then the tests won't be registered in the Jest test runner.

The default jest-playwright environment is node, but you can use a browser-like environment through jest-playwright-jsdom · There is a utility package expect-playwright which simplifies the expect statements in combination with Playwright to make e.g.

Using Jest with Playwright - Playwright Community 🎭

May 28, 2020 - Currently there two common ways of doing that. Either you can do it manually by using the hooks (beforeAll, afterAll, beforeEach, afterEach) or you use jest-playwright. We recommend to use jest-playwright due it has features like: Multi-browser and device (like iPhones with given screen sizes) support

I think what he wants to do is to run a codegen'd test inside Jest, and the test will automatically import @playwright/test in the header. 2023-07-05T13:51:17.667Z+00:00 ...

What should I know about testing?

You really can't go wrong with choices here. My main experience comes from Jest for unit tests and Cypress for E2E. I can't really speak to component testing with Cypress and Playwright, but if you want a one-stop shop for both unit and E2E there's that option. No matter your choice you'll find the usage of describe(), it()/test() and expect() to be very similar. I will mention react testing library separately, as it offers a different approach to setting up tests and running assertions that what's out of the box for jest, vitest and cypress. Apparently playwright's component testing is directly based off of testing library. Regardless of your choice(s) of test runner it is recommended to use react testing library with it.

Jest vs Playwright

Hard for me to say without more details but let me point out that the Jest-Playwright library recommends to use Playwright. https://github.com/playwright-community/jest-playwright More on reddit.com

If you have the chance to switch TODAY, which testing stack for component testing to use?

For component testing I’ve recently started using testing-library and I like it a lot. I’m generally focused on testing actual user actions and inputs and not implementations of the framework itself. It’s great for stuff like that and it’s pretty easy to set up a custom test bed with all of your providers. We use storybook for our shared custom components and design system as well, although we rely on it more as a component hub and documentation source than for testing. More on reddit.com
