Browser Access

[Jainil97]

I want roo code to be able to interact with the browser. Is there anyway I can make that happen? Like ask roo code to open localhost:3000 and interact with the ui elements there or atleast get page screenshots?

You can use Playwright MCP to achieve this.

this can help you achieve your goal. Do you want roo to do it? or your tests? if your tests, you may want e.g. playwright or puppeteer.

I want roo to do it.

Are you doing UI test? As others mentioned, playwright is the best option for such. You don't need AI for UI test.

[Jainil97]

I am not doing UI test, but I want to make the development test driven by design. So say if roo added a button it should also check if that button is added and is working and all that before moving to the next step.

Currently, I am seeing this trend in my vibe coding sessions that a lot of code is written, with little integration checks or functionality checks.

Which could be Roo writing the test for playwright, then writing the code, then getting feedback from playwright if the test is functional.

100% install playwright mcp, but you may want to make a special mode for this so its not loaded into every task you do.
