DawnYour Dusk suite, on Playwright.

Migrating from Dusk

Compatibility table

🌅

Drop-in, byte-identical

Test bodies stay exactly as written - visit, type, press, waitFor, assertSee, within, loginAs, "@dusk" selectors. Even the Laravel\Dusk\Browser import keeps working.

⚡

Playwright-native waiting

No PHP-side polling, no sleeps. Element waits are locator.waitFor(); text, URL and script waits run as in-browser condition promises - Playwright's own mechanism.

🚫

No WebDriver, no ChromeDriver

Dawn does not swap Dusk's WebDriver driver; it reimplements Dusk's public Browser API on Playwright. No Selenium, no binary version drift.

🧪

Proven compatibility

The test suite includes byte-identical Dusk test classes, cases ported verbatim from laravel/dusk's own repository, and a real laravel/laravel integration app in CI.
