How can I run end-to-end tests after my Vercel Preview Deployment?

You can use Vercel's webhooks with your Git provider to run an end-to-end test suite after your Vercel deployment has finished. This example will use GitHub Actions, but you can use any of our supported Git providers.

Configure a GitHub Action

  1. Connect your Git repository to your project. For new projects, you can follow these docs. For existing projects, visit your Git configuration in the Settings tab of your project dashboard.
  2. Create a GitHub workflow in .github/workflows with the following:
1
# We are using Playwright but you may use your E2E framework of choice
2
name: Playwright Tests
3


4
on:
5
  deployment_status:
6
    
7
  run-e2es:
8
    if: github.event_name == 'deployment_status' && github.event.deployment_status.state == 'success'
9
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
10
    steps:
11
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
12
    - name: Install dependencies
13
      run: npm ci && npx playwright install --with-deps
14
    - name: Run tests
15
        run: npx playwright test
16
          env:
17
              BASE_URL: ${{ github.event.deployment_status.target_url }}
