Playwright

A guide for generating Trunk-compatible test reports for Playwright

1. Generate JUnit

Configure Playwright to generate JUnit:

import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';

export default defineConfig({
  reporter: [
    ['junit', 
      { outputFile: 'junit.xml' }
    ]
  ],
});

2. Output Location

You need to disable automatic retries if you previously enabled them. Retries compromise the accurate detection of flaky tests.

Disable Retries

The JUnit file will be written to the outputFile specified in the configuration. In the example above, the results will be written to junit.xml.

You can disable retries in Playwright by omitting the --retries command line option and removing retries in your playwright.config.ts file.

Next Step

JUnit files generated with Playwright are compatible with Trunk Flaky Tests. See CI Providers for a guide on how to upload test results to Trunk.
