The Playwright trace viewer, online

Drop a trace.zip and it opens right here, in your browser. No install, no account, and the file never leaves your machine.

The Playwright trace viewer is normally something you run locally: download trace.zip from CI, then playwright show-trace. kinora runs the real viewer as a web page instead, so a trace opens the moment you pick it, with the full timeline, DOM snapshots, network, console, and source. The zip is read in your browser by a service worker, so nothing is uploaded anywhere. Connect your CI later and the same viewer opens every failure straight from your run history.

Nothing to install

Drop a trace.zip on the page and it opens. No show-trace, no download step, no sign-up.

The trace stays on your machine

The zip is read locally in your browser, never uploaded, so traces from a private project stay private.

The real trace viewer

Timeline, DOM snapshots, network, console, and source, vendored straight from Playwright, so everything behaves as you expect.

Then straight from CI

Send your runs to kinora and the same viewer opens on any failure, from any past run, with no artifact dance.

FAQ

Can I open a Playwright trace online without installing anything?

Yes. Drop a trace.zip on the viewer and it opens in your browser, with no install, no account, and nothing to configure.

Is my trace uploaded to kinora?

No. The zip is read locally in your browser by a service worker, the same way the viewer reads a remote trace. It never reaches a kinora server.

Is it the real Playwright trace viewer?

Yes. The trace viewer is vendored from Playwright, so the timeline, snapshots, network, and console tabs behave exactly as you expect.

Can I open traces from CI automatically?

Yes. Send your runs with @kinora/reporter or the CLI, and every failure opens its trace inline in the dashboard, for any run kinora has kept.

Is there a desktop app?

Yes. The kinora desktop app is a standalone Playwright trace viewer that opens traces from your file manager, also without an account.
