SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Manually logging into authenticated sites for headless QA testing is slow and repetitive, especially when testing protected user flows that require valid session cookies.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Interactive Cookie Picker: Auto-detects installed Chromium browsers and opens a UI to select which cookie domains to import.
  • Direct Domain Import: Skip the UI by specifying a domain directly for fast, targeted cookie imports.
  • Use Case: For example, when QA testing a client's authenticated admin dashboard, you can import your existing logged-in session cookies instead of re-entering credentials for every test run.

Quick Start

Use the setup-browser-cookies skill to import cookies from your Chromium browser to test authenticated pages in headless QA sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions about setup-browser-cookies

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I import browser cookies for authenticated Playwright testing?▼

You can import browser cookies for Playwright testing by using a skill that detects local Chromium installations, decrypts stored cookie data, and loads the selected cookies into a headless browsing context. This skips manual login for QA sessions.

Can I use existing session cookies for headless QA testing instead of logging in manually?▼

Yes, you can use existing session cookies for headless QA testing. The skill extracts live cookies from your installed Chromium browsers and applies them directly to your test context, eliminating repetitive credential entry for protected user dashboards.

How do I import cookies from a specific domain into a headless browser context?▼

To import cookies from a specific domain, you can use the direct domain import option to bypass the interactive UI. This allows for fast, targeted cookie imports directly into your Playwright headless browsing context for testing gated content.

Does importing Chromium browser cookies require any specific dependencies?▼

Importing Chromium browser cookies requires the gstack browse binary to detect local browser installations and decrypt stored cookie data. The skill relies on this binary to successfully load selected cookies into the headless environment.

What is the best way to test authenticated admin dashboards without entering credentials every run?▼

The best way to test authenticated admin dashboards without entering credentials is to import your existing logged-in session cookies. An interactive cookie picker auto-detects installed Chromium browsers, letting you select which cookie domains to load into headless QA sessions.
