[Question] Is it possible to get the test's video and screenshot in local machine while executing test on remote machine?

I am running test on a remote machine.

• Runner used: @playwright/test
• Playwright version: 1.24.0

The config file is as given below:

const config = {
  testDir: 'tests',
  outputDir: 'my-report-artefacts',
  testMatch: '**/*.spec.js',
  timeout: 60000,
  headless: false,
  workers: 10,
  use: {
    viewport: null,
    screenshots: 'on',
    video: 'on',
    trace: 'on',
  },
  reporter: [ ['html', { outputFolder: 'my-report' }] ],
  projects: [
    {
      name: 'chrome:latest:MacOS Catalina@lambdatest',
      use: {
        viewport: { width: 1920, height: 1080 }
      }
    }
  ]
}

While I am executing the tests in my local machine, I am able to get the video, screenshots and trace of the test. While executing on remote machine, I am getting only trace. The video I am getting is blank. Is there any way to get the video and the screenshots?

Yes, as of today it’s expected that video/screenshot/tracing won’t work, we’d have to implement the issue above. Please upvote https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/8379, and then it will be added!

Closing as per above.

@mxschmitt , can you reopen this issue or https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/8379, as the issue regarding getting the test’s video/screenshots is not resolved?
