Selewright

Selewright is a lightweight element selector inspector and script migration helper. Built as a browser utility, it helps developers convert legacy Selenium element selectors (XPath, IDs, link text) into modern Playwright locator methods instantly.

Key Features of Selewright

• Selector Translation: Converts Selenium patterns (e.g. By.Id("submit")) into Playwright equivalents (page.locator("#submit")).
• Target Validator: Highlights targets on active pages to verify that translated locators find the correct elements.
• Syntax Export: Generates code snippets for JavaScript, Python, C#, and Java test suites.
• Console Logger: Logs click sequences and automatically generates locator blocks for quick scripting.

Benefits of Using Selewright

• Accelerated Migration: Significantly speeds up the transition from legacy Selenium suites to modern Playwright codebases.
• Minimize Locator Errors: Built-in validation ensures that converted locators match their targets exactly.
• Multi-Language Support: Easily supports diverse development teams using different programming languages.

QA teams maintaining hybrid test suites can use Selewright to run browser commands across both Selenium and Playwright, easing framework migration.
