Video Helper for CodeceptJS multi-session recording

I wanted to make a nice test recording, one to show to clients and public.

Playwright allows you to record sessions, but creates several separate recordings, one for each session. This package generates a json file with a test run report that allows you to generate a nice looking video. It also generates a simple mlt file that can be played back or used to generate a recording with the melt command.

Installation

  npm install --save-dev conceptjs-video-helper

Usage

codecept.conf.js

 helpers: {
  VideoHelper: {
    require: 'codeceptjs-video-helper'
  },
  Playwright: {
    browser: 'chromium',
    url: 'http://localhost:8001',
    show: false,
    emulate: {
      recordVideo: {
        dir: "./recordings"
      }
    }
  }
}

The scenario.mlt and scenario.json files will be placed in the recordings directory You can run melt to merge videos together:

  melt recordings/scenario.mlt
