FAQPage Schema
How do I import real browser cookies into Playwright headless tests?▼

To import browser cookies into Playwright headless tests, use an interactive cookie picker UI to select specific domains from your real Chromium browser, decrypt them, and load them directly into the headless session.

Why do I need to import cookies for QA testing of authenticated pages?▼

Importing cookies for QA testing of authenticated pages preserves your real login state across test runs, allowing headless browsers to bypass authentication screens and directly access secure areas with an active user session.

Can I select specific cookie domains to load into a headless Chromium session?▼

Yes, you can select specific cookie domains to load into a headless Chromium session by using the interactive cookie picker UI, which allows you to choose exactly which authenticated domains to import before executing your tests.

What is the best way to authenticate a headless browser using existing login state?▼

The best way to authenticate a headless browser using existing login state is to decrypt and import real domain cookies from your local Chromium browser into the test session, ensuring tests run with a valid authenticated profile.

Does importing cookies into headless tests require a specific browser setup?▼

Importing cookies into headless tests requires a Chromium-based browser integration and a cookie picker UI to decrypt and load the domain cookies, ensuring the local browser environment is properly accessible.
