Hi,
We would like to have Selenium Grid support for Playwright, so we can run our tests like we do today with Selenium.
https://playwright.dev/docs/selenium-grid
Since we have a very restricted environment, the current Playwright support (upload project via API) is not an option for us.
Best regards,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
We support running Playwright in the cloud using the environment variables as mentioned here - https://playwright.dev/docs/selenium-grid
However, there are several limitations:
1. Playwright can run in this mode only on Edge and Chrome, because it is using CDP (it is also mentioned in their docs)
2. The report has no video. We are working on this issue.
3. Report steps are only CDP commands, because Playwright in this mode is using only CDP commands.
Supporting extended PW features and easier execution is part of our roadmap for Q1 of 2026.
I will mark this idea as done, and please follow our release notes for the upcoming version for updates on the progress.
Thank you,
Michael Abramovich, Product manager.
