Overview
The recommended way to use TestDino in GitHub Actions is the @testdino/playwright reporter, which streams results, traces, screenshots and videos to TestDino while the job runs, with no upload step. The TestDino Reporter GitHub Action is the alternative for pipelines that upload a finished report directory: add it as an always-run step after your Playwright tests and every run is captured whether tests pass or fail.
Control which artifacts are uploaded: JSON results are the baseline. Toggle HTML reports, screenshots, videos, traces, and file attachments individually. Store your API token as a GitHub secret and reference it directly in the workflow.
Key features
- Single workflow step with no CLI installation needed
- Runs on pass and fail with if: always()
- Configurable uploads: HTML, screenshots, videos, traces, files
- Verbose logging option for debugging uploads
- Works with any GitHub Actions runner
How it works
Store your API token
In your GitHub repository, go to Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions. Add a secret named TESTDINO_TOKEN with your TestDino API token.
Add the action step
Add the Testdino1/testdino-actions@v1.0.0 step to your workflow after your Playwright test run. Set if: always() so it runs even when tests fail.
Configure uploads
Set report-dir to your Playwright report directory. Toggle upload-html, upload-traces, upload-videos, and upload-images to include the artifacts you need.
GitHub Actions workflow
name: Playwright Tests
on: [push, pull_request]
jobs:
test:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
- name: Install dependencies
run: npm ci
- name: Run Playwright tests
run: npx playwright test

with:
token: ${{ secrets.TESTDINO_TOKEN }}
report-dir: './playwright-report'
upload-html: true
upload-traces: true
upload-videos: true
upload-images: trueInput parameters
The token input is required. Reference it from your GitHub secret as ${{ secrets.TESTDINO_TOKEN }}. The report-dir input defaults to ./playwright-report and can be changed to any path in your workspace.
All upload flags default to false except upload-html which defaults to true. Enable upload-traces, upload-videos, upload-images, and upload-files as needed. Set verbose: true to see detailed upload logs in your workflow.
