Adds support for video recording of browser test sessions, automatically saving a
.webmvideo when a test fails. Videos from passing tests are silently deleted to avoid unnecessary disk usage. This is optional just like in Playwright.Playwright has a native
recordVideocontext option that writes a.webmfile to a directory during the session. The video is finalized when the browser context closes — which already happens in the existingafterEachhook viaPlaywright::reset(). After reset, the plugin moves the video totests/Browser/Videos/on failure, or removes it on success.Usage
Enable globally in
Pest.php:or call it via
--record-videowhen running tests.Videos are .webm format, playable in all modern browsers
No new dependencies — relies entirely on Playwright's built-in recording
Parallel runs are safe since each worker uses its own isolated temp directory
Added unit tests.
Tested locally with a local browser test that intentionally failed.
