FAQPage Schema
How do I import browser cookies into a headless Playwright session?▼

Import browser cookies into a headless Playwright session by using an automation script to decrypt and load cookies from a local Chromium-based browser store, enabling immediate authenticated QA testing without manual sign-in.

Can I use cookies from Chrome or Brave for headless QA testing?▼

Yes, you can use cookies from Chrome, Brave, Arc, Edge, or Comet for headless QA testing. The skill decrypts cookies from any Chromium-based browser store and loads them directly into your Playwright automation runtime.

What's the best way to reproduce a logged-in state across Playwright test environments?▼

The best way to reproduce a logged-in state is importing real browser cookies via an interactive domain picker or direct domain import, decrypting them, and loading them into Playwright to maintain session persistence across test runs.

Do I need a local browser cookie store to set up authenticated headless sessions?▼

Yes, a local Chromium-based browser cookie store is required. You also need a compatible automation runtime and the skill's setup script to decrypt and load the cookies into your headless Playwright session.

How does the interactive domain picker work when importing cookies?▼

The interactive domain picker works by scanning your local browser cookie store, allowing you to select specific domains to import, and then decrypting and loading only those selected cookies into your headless Playwright session.
