ViewsCan you run multiple tests in one browser context Playwright Javascript?
Is it possible to run multiple tests in one browser window for playwright/test?
currently it will hit browser.close(); after every test even though they are testing on the same page which puts a lot of extra time on the tests.
test.beforeAll(async ({ browser }) => {
const context = await browser.newContext();
const page = await context.newPage();
await page.goto('https://example.com');
});
test('nav test', async ({ page }) => {
const name = await page.innerText('.navbar__title');
expect(name).toBe('Playwright');
});
test('header test', async ({ page }) => {
const name = await page.innerText('.navbar__header');
expect(name).toBe('Playwright');
});

When you create a tests like this test('header test', async ({page}) => { you're specifying page and telling it to create a new page context.
Remove the page from the test - and share the one you create from your .beforeAll
Try this:
test.describe('1 page multiple tests', () => {
let page;
test.beforeAll(async ({ browser }) => {
const context = await browser.newContext();
page = await context.newPage();
await page.goto('https://example.com');
});
test.afterAll(async ({ browser }) => {
browser.close;
});
test('nav test', async () => {
const name = await page.innerText('h1');
expect(name).toContain('Example');
});
test('header test', async () => {
const name = await page.innerText('h1');
expect(name).toContain('Domain');
});
});
Run it like this :
npx playwright test .\StackTests_SinglePage.spec.ts --headed
(you can see the name of my file in there)
You might need to toggle it down to 1 worker if it tries to parallel run your test.
For me, that code opens 1 borwser, 1 page, passes both tests the closes out.

Can you try wrapping the tests in a describe block? So they are treated as a group and not as an individual tests.
test.describe('two tests for same page', () => {
test('nav test', async ({ page }) => {
const name = await page.innerText('.navbar__title');
expect(name).toBe('Playwright');
});
test('header test', async ({ page }) => {
const name = await page.innerText('.navbar__header');
expect(name).toBe('Playwright');
});
});
