What is eslint-plugin-playwright?

eslint-plugin-playwright is an ESLint plugin that provides linting rules specific to Playwright, a Node.js library for browser automation. This plugin helps ensure best practices and code quality when writing tests with Playwright.

What are eslint-plugin-playwright's main functionalities?

No Page Pause

This rule disallows the use of `page.pause()` in your Playwright tests to prevent unintended pauses during test execution.

module.exports = {
  plugins: ['playwright'],
  rules: {
    'playwright/no-page-pause': 'error'
  }
};

No Element Handle

This rule discourages the use of `elementHandle` in favor of using locators, which are more robust and easier to work with.

module.exports = {
  plugins: ['playwright'],
  rules: {
    'playwright/no-element-handle': 'error'
  }
};

No Wait For Timeout

This rule prevents the use of `page.waitForTimeout()` to avoid flaky tests caused by arbitrary wait times.

module.exports = {
  plugins: ['playwright'],
  rules: {
    'playwright/no-wait-for-timeout': 'error'
  }
};
