Piwi Picker di phenxdesign

Piwi Picker finds the locator to use for any element of the page you are on. Every candidate is ranked by how stable it is, then counted against the live page, so the one at the top matches exactly one element. It also turns a flow you click through, across several pages, into a runnable Playwright spec.

Tools, all on the live page

• Pick an element: the ranked locators of one element, re-checked against the page, copied as a locator, an action line or an assertion.
• Multi-pick: the pattern shared by a list's rows or cards.
• Lint overlay: the elements that would make bad locator targets, each with a suggested data-testid.
• Assertions: expect(...) lines for an element.
• Agent context: one block describing an element, for a coding agent.
• Record actions: clicks, fills and selections across a site's pages, turned into a TypeScript spec. Password values are never captured.
• In DevTools: the ranked locators of the element selected in Elements, a locator console with a strict-mode verdict, the elements you name exported as a page object, network mocks, a Playwright project's viewport, and Save login for tests.

Private by default

Picking and recording never use the network. Nothing is collected or sent anywhere.

Optional: connect your own Piwi instance

Piwi is a self-hosted dashboard for Playwright test results. Connecting the add-on to your instance (its URL and an API key, in the settings) adds three tools: recordings that call your own test functions, a check of which functions work on the page, and an outline of the elements your tests reach. The add-on reads from your instance and sends it one thing: a bug report, when you click Send in the preview that shows exactly what goes.

Permissions

• The tab you are looking at, only when you click the toolbar button or press the shortcut.
• One site, asked for when you start recording on it, so the recorder can follow you across its pages. Nothing is granted at install.
• Your Piwi instance's address, asked for when you save a connection.
