Reporting case steps from Playwright

Migration_User

I currently have a test case in AIO that uses multiple test steps, I'd like to be able to report on these individual steps from Playwright using it's built in test.step function. Is this currently possible using the aiotests-playwright-reporter or is it something that could be added to the roadmap for future development?

Thanks

Hello Colin,

Thanks for bringing this up. The reporter currently doesn't support the steps option. AIO's Cucumber and Robot native integration today support updating steps and creating cases with steps. Are you looking for similar functionality with Playwright steps - that steps in AIO case can be updated with the playwright steps? We would love to hear your thoughts if you have any suggestions.

We have also added this to our list to evaluate the options surrounding Playwright steps.

Hi Niharika,

Thanks for getting back to me. I had envisioned it working something like the following:

Given I have a test case with steps something like:

Add item to list

Step 1: goto list page
Step 2: click add item
Step 3: add item details
Step 4: click add
Step 5: check list contains new item

In the playwright test I would then have:

test('Add item to list', { tag: '@PRJ-TC-1' }, async ({ page }) => {
await test.step('Step 1: goto list page', async () => {
// ...
});

await test.step('Step 2: click add item', async () => {
// ...
});

// etc...
});

I did try writing my own test reporter based on your aiotests-playwright-reporter but couldn't get the API call to record test step info correctly. But it does at least seem like it should be possible
