v1.61.0

🔑 WebAuthn passkeys

New Credentials virtual authenticator, available via browserContext.credentials, lets tests register passkeys and answer navigator.credentials.create() / navigator.credentials.get() ceremonies in the page — no real hardware key required, works in all browsers:

const context = await browser.newContext();
// Seed a passkey your backend provisioned for a test user.
await context.credentials.create('example.com', {
id: credentialId,
userHandle,
privateKey,
publicKey,
});
await context.credentials.install();
const page = await context.newPage();
await page.goto('https://example.com/login');
// The page's navigator.credentials.get() is answered with the seeded passkey.

You can also let the app register a passkey once in a setup test, read it back with credentials.get(), and seed it into later tests — see Credentials for details.

🗃️ Web Storage

New WebStorage API, available via page.localStorage and page.sessionStorage, reads and writes the page's storage for the current origin:

await page.localStorage.setItem('token', 'abc');
const token = await page.localStorage.getItem('token');
const items = await page.sessionStorage.items();

New APIs

Network

• apiResponse.securityDetails() and apiResponse.serverAddr() mirror the browser-side response.securityDetails() and response.serverAddr().

Pull Request Overview

Codacy results indicate that the project is up to standards. The upgrade of @playwright/test to version 1.61.1 meets the defined acceptance criteria. However, static analysis of the js/pnpm-lock.yaml file identified several security vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-6951, CVE-2026-40181, CVE-2026-41691, and CVE-2026-41907). It is highly recommended to verify the upgrade by running the existing test suite and to address these security risks.

About this PR

• Several security vulnerabilities (CVEs) were detected in the project's lockfile. While these are not directly introduced by the Playwright upgrade, they represent a significant security risk that should be addressed to ensure the integrity of the application.

js/pnpm-lock.yaml

_{line 310 🔴 HIGH RISK}
A high-severity Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability (CVE-2026-6951) was detected in simple-git@3.27.0. This poses a significant security risk as it could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. Updating simple-git to version 3.36.0 is recommended to mitigate this threat.

Test suggestions

• Run existing Playwright tests to ensure no breaking changes were introduced by the version upgrade.
