Local storage and evidence

Understand what Wrightbench stores and what remains in your project.

All Wrightbench-owned persistent state lives in the current user's home directory:

~/.wrightbench/

Stored by Wrightbench

  • settings.json — application preferences.
  • projects.json — registered workspaces and harness targets.
  • history.db — SQLite run history, using WAL mode.
  • reporter.cjs — the generated event reporter used for test runs.
  • ui-events/ — bounded event files used to ingest UI Mode runs.
  • record-host.cjs — the generated project-local Record adapter.

Stored by the Playwright project

The project continues to own its test files, Playwright configuration, environment setup, browsers, HTML reports, traces, screenshots and videos. Wrightbench does not delete repository artifacts when clearing old history.

Removing a project

Removing a project from Wrightbench updates the local registry only. It does not delete the project directory or rewrite its files.
