Wrightbench documentation

Install Wrightbench, import a Playwright project and use Record, Run and Report.

Wrightbench is a desktop studio for recording, running, debugging and reviewing Playwright test suites. It keeps Playwright's own Inspector, UI Mode, HTML report and Trace Viewer in one multi-project workspace.

Wrightbench workspace with the project switcher listing three registered Playwright projects and an embedded UI Mode run showing a passing login spec — One workspace for every Playwright project: the switcher lists registered projects while the Run tab hosts Playwright UI Mode.

Install Wrightbench

Download the signed desktop build for macOS, Windows or Linux.

Import a project

Connect an existing workspace without changing its files.

Check SHA-256 sums, the SBOM and build provenance.

What Wrightbench owns

Wrightbench owns the desktop workspace, project registry, run history and lifecycle around Playwright's tools. Your Playwright configuration remains the source of truth for tests, projects, environment loading and reporters.

What Wrightbench embeds

Record uses the project-local Playwright recorder and a headed browser.
Run hosts Playwright UI Mode without recreating its interface.
Report combines Wrightbench's persistent history with Playwright's HTML report and Trace Viewer.

Project-local by design

A registered workspace must resolve a local @playwright/test version in the supported range. Wrightbench does not silently download a different Playwright version for it.
