browser.locators

Options for built-in browser locators.

browser.locators.testIdAttribute

• Type: string
• Default: data-testid

Attribute used to find elements with getByTestId locator.

browser.locators.exact <Version type="experimental">4.1.3</Version> {#browser-locators-exact}

• Type: boolean
• Default: false

When set to true, locators will match text exactly by default, requiring a full, case-sensitive match. Individual locator calls can override this default via their own exact option.

// With exact: false (default), this matches "Hello, World!", "Say Hello, World", etc.
// With exact: true, this only matches the string "Hello, World" exactly.
const locator = page.getByText('Hello, World', { exact: true })
await locator.click()
