Use Proxies with Playwright

In this article, you will learn how to set up residential and mobile proxies for testing automation in Playwright.

1. To use Playwright and set up a proxy, paste this code example:
   

    const playwright = require('@playwright/test');
    const launchOptions = {
        proxy: {
            server: 'proxy.froxy.com:9000',
            username: 'login',
            password: 'password'
        }
    };
    (async () => {
        const defaultBrowser = await playwright['chromium'].launch({});
        const context = await defaultBrowser.newContext();
        const page = await context.newPage();
        await page.goto('https://froxy.com/api/detect-ip');
        console.log('chromium without proxy:', await page.textContent("*"));
        await defaultBrowser.close();
   
        for (const browserType of ['chromium', 'firefox', 'webkit']) {
            const browser = await playwright[browserType].launch(launchOptions);
            const context = await browser.newContext();
            const page = await context.newPage();
            try {
                await page.goto('https://froxy.com/api/detect-ip');
                console.log(`${browserType} with proxy:`, await page.textContent("*"));
            } catch (e) {
                console.log(e);
            }
            await browser.close();
        }
    })();
