# Playwright UI Tests
Write and run Playwright UI E2E tests for the Rossoctl UI across all environments.
> **Not to be confused with `test:playwright`** which is for recording narrated demo videos.
> This skill is for functional UI testing (login, navigate, interact, assert).

## Writing Tests
### Login Helper
All tests should handle Keycloak login when auth is enabled:
```typescript
import { test, expect, Page } from '@playwright/test';
const KEYCLOAK_USER = process.env.KEYCLOAK_USER || 'admin';
const KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD = process.env.KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD || 'admin';
async function loginIfNeeded(page: Page) {
await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle', { timeout: 15000 });
const isKeycloakLogin = await page.locator('#kc-form-login, #username, input[name="username"]')
.first().isVisible({ timeout: 3000 }).catch(() => false);
if (isKeycloakLogin) {
await page.locator('#username, input[name="username"]').first().fill(KEYCLOAK_USER);
await page.locator('#password, input[name="password"]').first().fill(KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD);
await page.locator('#kc-login, input[type="submit"]').first().click();
await page.waitForURL(/^(?!.*keycloak)/, { timeout: 15000 });
await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle');
}
}
```
### Test Pattern
```typescript
test('should login and interact with agent', async ({ page }) => {
test.setTimeout(120000); // LLM calls can be slow
await page.goto('/agents');
await loginIfNeeded(page);
// Navigate
await expect(page.getByRole('heading', { name: /Agent Catalog/i })).toBeVisible();
await page.getByRole('link', { name: /weather-service/i }).click();
// Interact
await page.getByPlaceholder('Type your message...').fill('What is the weather?');
await page.getByRole('button', { name: /Send/i }).click();
// Assert response
await expect(page.locator('text=/weather|temperature/i').first())
.toBeVisible({ timeout: 90000 });
});
```
### Selector Patterns
| Element | Selector |
|---------|----------|
| Chat input | `page.getByPlaceholder('Type your message...')` |
| Send button | `page.getByRole('button', { name: /Send/i })` |
| Agent link | `page.getByRole('link', { name: /weather-service/i })` |
| Page heading | `page.getByRole('heading', { name: /Agent Catalog/i })` |
| Namespace selector | `page.locator('[aria-label="Select namespace"]')` |
| Status badge | `page.locator('.pf-v5-c-label')` |
| Import button | `page.getByRole('button', { name: /Import Agent/i })` |
### Timeouts
| Operation | Timeout | Reason |
|-----------|---------|--------|
| Page load | 15s | Network + Keycloak init |
| API response | 30s | Backend query |
| LLM response | 90s | Ollama inference + tool calls |
| Full test | 120s | End-to-end including chat |
## Running Tests
### On Kind (local)
```bash
# Prerequisites: Kind cluster running, backend port-forwarded
kubectl port-forward -n rossoctl-system svc/rossoctl-backend 8000:8000 &
cd rossoctl/ui-v2
npm ci
npx playwright install chromium
npm run test:e2e # Headless (starts Vite dev server)
npm run test:e2e:ui # Interactive Playwright UI
npm run test:e2e:debug # Debug mode
npx playwright test agent-chat.spec.ts # Single file
```
The Vite dev server starts automatically and proxies `/api` to `localhost:8000`.
### On HyperShift
```bash
export CLUSTER=<suffix> MANAGED_BY_TAG=${MANAGED_BY_TAG:-rossoctl-hypershift-custom}
export KUBECONFIG=~/clusters/hcp/$MANAGED_BY_TAG-$CLUSTER/auth/kubeconfig
# Get UI URL from OpenShift route
ROSSOCTL_UI_URL="https://$(kubectl get route rossoctl-ui -n rossoctl-system -o jsonpath='{.spec.host}')"
cd rossoctl/ui-v2
npm ci
npx playwright install chromium
ROSSOCTL_UI_URL="$ROSSOCTL_UI_URL" npx playwright test
ROSSOCTL_UI_URL="$ROSSOCTL_UI_URL" npm run test:e2e:ui # Interactive
```
**HyperShift notes:**
- Always set `ROSSOCTL_UI_URL` to the OpenShift route (no dev server needed)
- May need `PLAYWRIGHT_IGNORE_HTTPS_ERRORS=1` for self-signed certs
- Keycloak credentials: `kubectl get secret keycloak-initial-admin -n keycloak -o jsonpath='{.data.password}' | base64 -d`
### In CI
CI step `91-run-ui-tests.sh` runs after pytest E2E tests:
1. Installs npm dependencies + Playwright chromium
2. Starts Vite dev server (proxies to port-forwarded backend)
3. Runs `npx playwright test`
4. Uploads `playwright-report/` as artifact
### Analyzing CI Failures
```bash
# Download Playwright report
gh run download <run-id> -n e2e-test-results -D /tmp/test-results
# Open HTML report
npx playwright show-report /tmp/test-results/rossoctl/ui-v2/playwright-report
```
