Introduction


A Page can have one or more Frame objects attached to it. Each page has a main frame and page-level interactions (like click) are assumed to operate in the main frame.

A page can have additional frames attached with the iframe HTML tag. These frames can be accessed for interactions inside the frame.

// Locate element inside frameconst username = await page.frameLocator('.frame-class').getByLabel('User Name');await username.fill('John');

Frame objects


One can access frame objects using the page.frame() API:

// Get frame using the frame's name attributeconst frame = page.frame('frame-login');// Get frame using frame's URLconst frame = page.frame({ url: /.*domain.*/ });// Interact with the frameawait frame.fill('#username-input', 'John');
