#### 🌐 HAR recording on Tracing


[tracing.startHar()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-tracing#tracing-start-har)
/
[tracing.stopHar()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-tracing#tracing-stop-har)
expose HAR recording as a first-class tracing API, with the same
`content`, `mode` and `urlFilter` options as `recordHar`. The returned
[Disposable](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-disposable) makes it
easy to scope a recording with `await using`:

```js
await using har = await context.tracing.startHar('trace.har');
const page = await context.newPage();
await page.goto('https://playwright.dev');
// HAR is finalized when `har` goes out of scope.
```

#### 🪝 Drop API

New
[locator.drop()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-locator#locator-drop)
simulates an external drag-and-drop of files or clipboard-like data onto
an element. Playwright dispatches `dragenter`, `dragover`, and `drop`
with a synthetic \[DataTransfer] in the page context — works
cross-browser and is great for testing upload zones:

```js
await page.locator('#dropzone').drop({
  files: { name: 'note.txt', mimeType: 'text/plain', buffer: Buffer.from('hello') },
});

await page.locator('#dropzone').drop({
  data: {
    'text/plain': 'hello world',
    'text/uri-list': 'https://example.com',
  },
});
```

#### 🎯 Aria snapshots

-
[expect(page).toMatchAriaSnapshot()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-pageassertions#page-assertions-to-match-aria-snapshot)
now works on a [Page](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-page), in
addition to a [Locator](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-locator) —
equivalent to asserting against `page.locator('body')`.
- New `boxes` option on
[locator.ariaSnapshot()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-locator#locator-aria-snapshot)
/
[page.ariaSnapshot()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-page#page-aria-snapshot)
appends each element's bounding box as `[box=x,y,width,height]`, useful
for AI consumption.

#### 🛑 test.abort()

New
[test.abort()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-test#test-abort)
aborts the currently running test from a fixture, hook, or route handler
with an optional message. Use it when you have detected an unrecoverable
misuse and want to fail the test right away:

```js
test('does not publish to the shared page', async ({ page }) => {
  await page.route('**/publish', route => {
    test.abort('Tests must not publish to the shared page. Use the `clone` option.');
    return route.abort();
  });
  // ...
});
```

#### New APIs

##### Browser, Context and Page

- Event
[browser.on('context')](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browser#browser-event-context)
— fired when a new context is created on the browser.
- [BrowserContext](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsercontext)
now mirrors lifecycle events from its pages:
[browserContext.on('download')](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsercontext#browser-context-event-download),
[browserContext.on('frameattached')](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsercontext#browser-context-event-frame-attached),
[browserContext.on('framedetached')](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsercontext#browser-context-event-frame-detached),
[browserContext.on('framenavigated')](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsercontext#browser-context-event-frame-navigated),
[browserContext.on('pageclose')](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsercontext#browser-context-event-page-close),
[browserContext.on('pageload')](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsercontext#browser-context-event-page-load).

##### Locators and Assertions

- New option `description` in
[page.getByRole()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-page#page-get-by-role)
/
[locator.getByRole()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-locator#locator-get-by-role)
/
[frame.getByRole()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-frame#frame-get-by-role)
/
[frameLocator.getByRole()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-framelocator#frame-locator-get-by-role)
for matching the [accessible
description](https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/#dfn-accessible-description).
- New option `pseudo` in
[expect(locator).toHaveCSS()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-locatorassertions#locator-assertions-to-have-css)
reads computed styles from `::before` or `::after`.
- New option `style` in
[locator.highlight()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-locator#locator-highlight)
applies extra inline CSS to the highlight overlay, plus new
[page.hideHighlight()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-page#page-hide-highlight)
to clear all highlights.

##### Network

-
[webSocketRoute.protocols()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-websocketroute#web-socket-route-protocols)
returns the WebSocket subprotocols requested by the page.
- New option `noDefaults` in
[browserType.connectOverCDP()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsertype#browser-type-connect-over-cdp)
disables Playwright's default overrides on the default context (download
behavior, focus emulation, media emulation), so attaching to a user's
daily-driver browser doesn't disturb its state.

##### Errors and Reporting

- New
[webError.location()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-weberror#web-error-location)
mirrors
[consoleMessage.location()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-consolemessage#console-message-location).
-
[consoleMessage.location()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-consolemessage#console-message-location)
now exposes `line` / `column` properties (`lineNumber` / `columnNumber`
are deprecated).
- New
[testInfoError.errorContext](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-testinfoerror#test-info-error-error-context)
surfaces additional diagnostic context, such as the aria snapshot of the
receiver at the time of an `expect(...)` matcher failure.
-
[reporter.onError()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-reporter#reporter-on-error)
now receives a `workerInfo` argument with details about the worker for
fixture teardown errors.

##### Test runner

- New `{testFileBaseName}` token in
[testProject.snapshotPathTemplate](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-testproject#test-project-snapshot-path-template)
— file name without extension.
- Test runner now errors when a config tries to override a non-option
fixture, and rejects `workers: 0` or negative values.

#### 🛠️ Other improvements

- HTML reporter:
- `npx playwright show-report` accepts `.zip` files directly — no need
to unzip first.
- Steps that contain attachments inside nested children show an
indicator on the parent step.
  - The `repeatEachIndex` is shown in the test header when non-zero.
- Trace Viewer adds a pretty-print toggle for JSON / form request and
response bodies in the network details panel.

#### Breaking Changes ⚠️

- Removed long-deprecated APIs:
- `Locator.ariaRef()` — use the standard
[locator.ariaSnapshot()](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-locator#locator-aria-snapshot)
pipeline.
- `handle` option on `BrowserContext.exposeBinding` and
`Page.exposeBinding`.
- `logger` option on `BrowserType.connect` and
`BrowserType.connectOverCDP` — use
[tracing](https://playwright.dev/docs/trace-viewer) instead.
- Context options `videosPath` / `videoSize` — use `recordVideo`
instead.

#### Browser Versions

- Chromium 148.0.7778.96
- Mozilla Firefox 150.0.2
- WebKit 26.4

This version was also tested against the following stable channels:

- Google Chrome 147
- Microsoft Edge 147
