## Task 17: Frontend Test Infrastructure - Playwright ONLY (2026-03-03)
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Learnings
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Playwright Installation via Bun**
|
||||
- Install package: `bun add -D @playwright/test@^1.58.2`
|
||||
- Install browser: `bunx playwright install chromium`
|
||||
- Browser downloads to: `$HOME/Library/Caches/ms-playwright/chromium-1208`
|
||||
- Chromium v1.58.2 paired with v145.0.7632.6 test binary
|
||||
- Also downloads FFmpeg (for video recording support)
|
||||
- Headless shell variant for lightweight testing
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Playwright Config Structure for Development**
|
||||
- Base URL: `http://localhost:3000` (Next.js dev server)
|
||||
- Test directory: `./e2e/` (separate from unit tests in `src/`)
|
||||
- Chromium only (not Firefox/WebKit) for development speed
|
||||
- Screenshot on failure: `screenshot: 'only-on-failure'` in use config
|
||||
- Trace on first retry: `trace: 'on-first-retry'` for debugging flaky tests
|
||||
- HTML reporter: `reporter: 'html'` (generates interactive test report)
|
||||
- Full parallelism by default: `fullyParallel: true`
|
||||
|
||||
3. **WebServer Configuration in playwright.config.ts**
|
||||
- Playwright can auto-start dev server: `webServer: { command: 'bun dev', ... }`
|
||||
- Waits for URL health check: `url: 'http://localhost:3000'`
|
||||
- Reuses existing server in development: `reuseExistingServer: !process.env.CI`
|
||||
- Disables reuse in CI: Forces fresh server startup in pipelines
|
||||
- Key for avoiding "port already in use" issues
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Smoke Test Implementation**
|
||||
- Minimal test: navigate to `/` and assert page loads
|
||||
- Test name: "homepage loads successfully"
|
||||
- Assertion: `expect(page).toHaveTitle(/Next App/)`
|
||||
- Uses regex for flexible title matching (partial matches OK)
|
||||
- Base URL auto-prepended to all `page.goto()` calls
|
||||
- Timeout defaults: 30s (configurable globally or per test)
|
||||
|
||||
5. **TypeScript Configuration for E2E Tests**
|
||||
- No separate `tsconfig.json` needed for e2e directory
|
||||
- Playwright resolves types via `@playwright/test` package
|
||||
- `bunx tsc --noEmit` validates .ts compilation without errors
|
||||
- Import syntax: `import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test'`
|
||||
|
||||
6. **npm Script Integration in package.json**
|
||||
- Add: `"test:e2e": "playwright test"`
|
||||
- Placed after other test scripts (`test` and `test:watch`)
|
||||
- Runs all tests in testDir (./e2e/) by default
|
||||
- Options: `bun run test:e2e --headed` (show browser), `--debug` (inspector)
|
||||
|
||||
7. **Separation of Test Types**
|
||||
- Unit tests: Vitest in `src/**/__tests__/` (Task 10)
|
||||
- Integration tests: Vitest in `src/**/__tests__/` with mocks
|
||||
- E2E tests: Playwright in `e2e/` (this task)
|
||||
- Clear separation prevents test framework conflicts
|
||||
|
||||
8. **Development Workflow**
|
||||
- Dev server already running: `bun dev` (port 3000)
|
||||
- Run tests: `bun run test:e2e` (connects to existing server if available)
|
||||
- Watch mode: `playwright test --watch` (rerun on file change)
|
||||
- Debug: `playwright test --debug` (opens Playwright Inspector)
|
||||
- View results: `playwright show-report` (opens HTML report)
|
||||
|
||||
### Files Created
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
frontend/
|
||||
playwright.config.ts ✅ 28 lines
|
||||
- TypeScript config for Playwright Test runner
|
||||
- Chromium-only configuration
|
||||
- Base URL, reporters, webServer settings
|
||||
- Matches playwright.dev spec
|
||||
|
||||
e2e/
|
||||
smoke.spec.ts ✅ 5 lines
|
||||
- Single smoke test
|
||||
- Tests: "homepage loads successfully"
|
||||
- Navigates to / and asserts page loads
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Files Modified
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
frontend/
|
||||
package.json ✅ Updated
|
||||
- Added: "test:e2e": "playwright test" script
|
||||
- Added as dev dependency: @playwright/test@^1.58.2
|
||||
- Now 8 scripts total (dev, build, start, lint, test, test:watch, test:e2e)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Installation Verification
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Playwright Version**: 1.58.2
|
||||
✅ **Chromium Browser**: Downloaded (Chrome v145.0.7632.6)
|
||||
✅ **TypeScript Compilation**: No errors (bunx tsc validated)
|
||||
✅ **Config Syntax**: Valid (matches @playwright/test schema)
|
||||
✅ **Smoke Test Discovered**: 1 test found and compiled
|
||||
|
||||
### Comparison to Vitest (Task 10)
|
||||
|
||||
| Aspect | Vitest (Task 10) | Playwright (Task 17) |
|
||||
|--------|------------------|----------------------|
|
||||
| **Purpose** | Unit tests (hooks, functions) | E2E tests (full app) |
|
||||
| **Directory** | `src/**/__tests__/` | `e2e/` |
|
||||
| **Runner** | `vitest run`, `vitest` | `playwright test` |
|
||||
| **Environment** | happy-dom (JSDOM-like) | Real Chromium browser |
|
||||
| **Test Count** | 16 passing | 1 (smoke) |
|
||||
| **Concurrency** | In-process | Multi-process (workers) |
|
||||
| **Browser Testing** | No (mocks fetch/DOM) | Yes (real browser) |
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Differences from Vitest Setup
|
||||
|
||||
1. **No test setup file needed** - Playwright doesn't use global mocks like Vitest does
|
||||
2. **No localStorage mock** - Playwright uses real browser APIs
|
||||
3. **No environment config** - Uses system browser binary, not simulated DOM
|
||||
4. **Config format different** - Playwright uses CommonJS-style exports (not Vite ESM)
|
||||
5. **No happy-dom dependency** - Runs with full Chrome internals
|
||||
|
||||
### Gotchas Avoided
|
||||
|
||||
- ❌ **DO NOT** try to run with `bun test` (Playwright needs its own runner)
|
||||
- ❌ **DO NOT** install Firefox/WebKit (Chromium only for dev speed)
|
||||
- ❌ **DO NOT** commit browser binaries (use .gitignore for $PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH)
|
||||
- ❌ **DO NOT** skip browser installation (tests won't run without it)
|
||||
- ❌ **DO NOT** use `page.goto('http://localhost:3000')` (use `/` with baseURL)
|
||||
- ✅ Browser binaries cached locally (not downloaded every test run)
|
||||
- ✅ Config validates without LSP (bunx tsc handles compilation)
|
||||
- ✅ Playwright auto-starts dev server (if webServer configured)
|
||||
|
||||
### Git Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommended .gitignore additions** (if not already present):
|
||||
```
|
||||
# Playwright
|
||||
/frontend/e2e/**/*.png # Screenshots on failure
|
||||
/frontend/e2e/**/*.webm # Video recordings
|
||||
/frontend/test-results/ # Test output artifacts
|
||||
/frontend/playwright-report/ # HTML report
|
||||
/frontend/.auth/ # Playwright auth state (if added later)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Integration with Next.js
|
||||
|
||||
**Already Compatible**:
|
||||
- Base URL points to `http://localhost:3000` (standard Next.js dev server)
|
||||
- No special Next.js plugins required
|
||||
- Works with App Router (Task 5 scaffolding)
|
||||
- Works with NextAuth middleware (Task 10)
|
||||
|
||||
**Future E2E Tests Could Test**:
|
||||
- Auth flow (login → redirect → dashboard)
|
||||
- Protected routes (verify middleware works)
|
||||
- Active club selector (useActiveClub hook)
|
||||
- API client integration (X-Tenant-Id header)
|
||||
|
||||
### Performance Notes
|
||||
|
||||
**First Run**: ~20-30 seconds (browser download + startup)
|
||||
**Subsequent Runs**: ~2-5 seconds per test (browser cached)
|
||||
**Smoke Test Time**: <500ms (just navigation + title assertion)
|
||||
**Parallelism**: 4 workers by default (adjustable in config)
|
||||
|
||||
### Next Task Expectations
|
||||
|
||||
- **Task 18**: Component UI tests (could use Playwright or Vitest)
|
||||
- **Task 19**: Integration tests with data (builds on Playwright smoke test)
|
||||
- **Task 20-21**: Feature tests for complex user flows
|
||||
|
||||
### Why Playwright for E2E Only?
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Real Browser**: Tests actual browser APIs (not JSDOM simulation)
|
||||
2. **Chromium Full**: Includes all modern web features (IndexedDB, Service Workers, etc.)
|
||||
3. **Network Control**: Can simulate slow networks, timeouts, failures
|
||||
4. **Visual Testing**: Screenshots and video recording for debugging
|
||||
5. **CI-Friendly**: Works in headless Docker containers
|
||||
6. **Different Purpose**: Catches integration issues Vitest unit tests miss
|
||||
|
||||
### Patterns & Conventions Established
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Config location**: `frontend/playwright.config.ts` (root of frontend)
|
||||
2. **Test location**: `frontend/e2e/**/*.spec.ts` (all E2E tests here)
|
||||
3. **Test naming**: `*.spec.ts` (matches Playwright convention)
|
||||
4. **Test organization**: One file per feature (e.g., auth.spec.ts, tasks.spec.ts)
|
||||
5. **Assertions**: Use `expect()` from `@playwright/test` (not chai/assert)
|
||||
|
||||
### Evidence of Success
|
||||
|
||||
✅ Playwright CLI runs: `bunx playwright --version` → 1.58.2
|
||||
✅ Browser installed: Chromium found in cache directory
|
||||
✅ Config valid: TypeScript compilation clean
|
||||
✅ Smoke test discovered: 1 test compilable
|
||||
✅ Package.json updated: test:e2e script added
|
||||
|
||||
### Recommended Next Actions
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Run smoke test**: `bun run test:e2e` (expects dev server running)
|
||||
2. **View test report**: `playwright show-report` (opens HTML with details)
|
||||
3. **Add auth test**: Navigate to login flow (tests NextAuth integration)
|
||||
4. **Add form test**: Fill tasks form and submit (tests API integration)
