Trace Viewer Improvements

  • New 'system' theme option follows your OS dark/light mode preference
  • Search functionality (Cmd/Ctrl+F) is now available in code editors
  • Network details panel has been reorganized for better usability
  • JSON responses are now automatically formatted for readability

Thanks to @cpAdm for contributing these improvements!

Miscellaneous

browser_type.connect_over_cdp() now accepts an is_local option. When set to True, it tells Playwright that it runs on the same host as the CDP server, enabling file system optimizations.

Breaking Changes ⚠️

  • Removed _react and _vue selectors. See locators guide for alternatives.
  • Removed :light selector engine suffix. Use standard CSS selectors instead.
  • Option devtools from browser_type.launch() has been removed. Use args=['--auto-open-devtools-for-tabs'] instead.
  • Removed macOS 13 support for WebKit. We recommend to upgrade your macOS version, or keep using an older Playwright version.

Browser Versions

  • Chromium 145.0.7632.6
  • Mozilla Firefox 146.0.1
  • WebKit 26.0

This version was also tested against the following stable channels: - Google Chrome 144 - Microsoft Edge 144
