What is the best way to test authenticated pages in Playwright without manual login?

Can I select specific cookie domains to import into my headless browser?

Yes, you can select specific cookie domains to import into your headless browser using an interactive picker UI that lets you choose exactly which authenticated sessions to transfer.

Do I need a compatible Chromium profile to replicate real user sessions?
