136
+
137
+ ```bash
138
+ playwright-cli route "**/*.jpg" --status=404
139
+ playwright-cli route "https://api.example.com/**" --body='{"mock": true}'
140
+ playwright-cli route-list
141
+ playwright-cli unroute "**/*.jpg"
142
+ playwright-cli unroute
143
+ ```
144
+
145
+ ### DevTools
146
+
147
+ ```bash
148
+ playwright-cli console
149
+ playwright-cli console warning
150
+ playwright-cli network
151
+ playwright-cli run-code "async page => await page.context().grantPermissions(['geolocation'])"

153
+ playwright-cli tracing-stop
154
+ playwright-cli video-start
155
+ playwright-cli video-stop video.webm
156
+ ```
157
+
158
+ ## Open parameters
159
+
160
+ ```bash
161
+ # Use specific browser when creating session
162
+ playwright-cli open --browser=chrome
163
+ playwright-cli open --browser=firefox
164
+ playwright-cli open --browser=webkit
165
+ playwright-cli open --browser=msedge
166
+ # Connect to browser via extension
167
+ playwright-cli open --extension
168
+
169
+ # Use persistent profile (by default profile is in-memory)
170
+ playwright-cli open --persistent
171
+ # Use persistent profile with custom directory
172
+ playwright-cli open --profile=/path/to/profile
173
+
174
+ # Start with config file
175
+ playwright-cli open --config=my-config.json
176
+
177
+ # Close the browser
178
+ playwright-cli close
179
+ # Delete user data for the default session
180
+ playwright-cli delete-data
181
+ ```
182
+
183
+ ## Snapshots
184
+
185
+ After each command, playwright-cli provides a snapshot of the current browser state.
186
+
187
+ ```bash
188
+ > playwright-cli goto https://example.com
189
+ ### Page
190
+ - Page URL: https://example.com/
191
+ - Page Title: Example Domain
192
+ ### Snapshot
193
+ [Snapshot](.playwright-cli/page-2026-02-14T19-22-42-679Z.yml)
194
+ ```
195
+
196
+ You can also take a snapshot on demand using `playwright-cli snapshot` command.
197
+
198
+ If `--filename` is not provided, a new snapshot file is created with a timestamp. Default to automatic file naming, use `--filename=` when artifact is a part of the workflow result.
199
+
200
+ ## Browser Sessions
201
+
202
+ ```bash
203
+ # create new browser session named "mysession" with persistent profile
204
+ playwright-cli -s=mysession open example.com --persistent
205
+ # same with manually specified profile directory (use when requested explicitly)
206
+ playwright-cli -s=mysession open example.com --profile=/path/to/profile
207
+ playwright-cli -s=mysession click e6
208
+ playwright-cli -s=mysession close # stop a named browser
209
+ playwright-cli -s=mysession delete-data # delete user data for persistent session
210
+
211
+ playwright-cli list
212
+ # Close all browsers
213
+ playwright-cli close-all
214
+ # Forcefully kill all browser processes
215
+ playwright-cli kill-all
216
+ ```
217
+
218
+ ## Local installation
219
+
220
+ In some cases user might want to install playwright-cli locally. If running globally available `playwright-cli` binary fails, use `npx playwright-cli` to run the commands. For example:
221
+
222
+ ```bash
223
+ npx playwright-cli open https://example.com
224
+ npx playwright-cli click e1
225
+ ```
226
+
227
+ ## Example: Form submission
228
+
229
+ ```bash
230
+ playwright-cli open https://example.com/form
231
+ playwright-cli snapshot
232
+
233
+ playwright-cli fill e1 "user@example.com"
234
+ playwright-cli fill e2 "password123"
235
+ playwright-cli click e3
236
+ playwright-cli snapshot
237
+ playwright-cli close
238
+ ```
239
+
240
+ ## Example: Multi-tab workflow
241
+
242
+ ```bash
243
+ playwright-cli open https://example.com
244
+ playwright-cli tab-new https://example.com/other
245
+ playwright-cli tab-list
246
+ playwright-cli tab-select 0
247
+ playwright-cli snapshot
248
+ playwright-cli close
249
+ ```
250
+
251
+ ## Example: Debugging with DevTools
252
+
253
+ ```bash
254
+ playwright-cli open https://example.com
255
+ playwright-cli click e4
256
+ playwright-cli fill e7 "test"
257
+ playwright-cli console
258
+ playwright-cli network
259
+ playwright-cli close
260
+ ```
261
+
262
+ ```bash
263
+ playwright-cli open https://example.com
264
+ playwright-cli tracing-start
265
+ playwright-cli click e4
266
+ playwright-cli fill e7 "test"
267
+ playwright-cli tracing-stop
268
+ playwright-cli close

+ # Request Mocking
2
+
3
+ Intercept, mock, modify, and block network requests.
4
+
5
+ ## CLI Route Commands
6
+
7
+ ```bash
8
+ # Mock with custom status
9
+ playwright-cli route "**/*.jpg" --status=404
10
+
11
+ # Mock with JSON body
12
+ playwright-cli route "**/api/users" --body='[{"id":1,"name":"Alice"}]' --content-type=application/json
13
+
14
+ # Mock with custom headers
15
+ playwright-cli route "**/api/data" --body='{"ok":true}' --header="X-Custom: value"
16
+
17
+ # Remove headers from requests
18
+ playwright-cli route "**/*" --remove-header=cookie,authorization
19
+
20
+ # List active routes
21
+ playwright-cli route-list
22
+
23
+ # Remove a route or all routes
24
+ playwright-cli unroute "**/*.jpg"
25
+ playwright-cli unroute
26
+ ```
27
+
28
+ ## URL Patterns
29
+
30
+ ```
31
+ **/api/users - Exact path match
32
+ **/api/*/details - Wildcard in path
33
+ **/*.{png,jpg,jpeg} - Match file extensions
34
+ **/search?q=* - Match query parameters
35
+ ```
36
+
37
+ ## Advanced Mocking with run-code
38
+
39
+ For conditional responses, request body inspection, response modification, or delays:
40
+
41
+ ### Conditional Response Based on Request
42
+
43
+ ```bash
44
+ playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
45
+ await page.route('**/api/login', route => {
46
+ const body = route.request().postDataJSON();
47
+ if (body.username === 'admin') {
48
+ route.fulfill({ body: JSON.stringify({ token: 'mock-token' }) });
49
+ } else {
50
+ route.fulfill({ status: 401, body: JSON.stringify({ error: 'Invalid' }) });
51
+ }
52
+ });
53
+ }"
54
+ ```
55
+
56
+ ### Modify Real Response
57
+
58
+ ```bash
59
+ playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
60
+ await page.route('**/api/user', async route => {
61
+ const response = await route.fetch();
62
+ const json = await response.json();
63
+ json.isPremium = true;
64
+ await route.fulfill({ response, json });
65
+ });
66
+ }"
67
+ ```
68
+
69
+ ### Simulate Network Failures
70
+
71
+ ```bash
72
+ playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
73
+ await page.route('**/api/offline', route => route.abort('internetdisconnected'));
74
+ }"
75
+ # Options: connectionrefused, timedout, connectionreset, internetdisconnected
76
+ ```
77
+
78
+ ### Delayed Response
79
+
80
+ ```bash
81
+ playwright-cli run-code "async page => {
82
+ await page.route('**/api/slow', async route => {
83
+ await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 3000));
84
+ route.fulfill({ body: JSON.stringify({ data: 'loaded' }) });
85
+ });
86
+ }"
87
+ ```
