# RecorderHelp

**Help URL:** `/forms/recorder-help`

## Purpose

Package and download the Playwright recorder, optionally pre-seeded with a scenario, and accept the recorded output back into TestVibe.

## Common Tasks

* Download the `Wisej.PlaywrightRecorder` zip package for the current project.
* Record interactions against a target site and upload the generated steps back to TestVibe.
* (Optional) Include an init script (`playwright-init-script.js`) from the repository.
* (Optional) Generate a combined `scenario.spec.js` that includes prerequisite tests before the current test.

## Key UI Elements

* Download flow: Creates a zip containing `Wisej.PlaywrightRecorder.exe` plus config files.
* Waiting state: After the recorder pings back, the dialog updates to `Waiting for Playwright session to end...`.

## Notes

* The zip includes `codegen.config.json` (URL, upload URL, target type, output file, optional viewport).
* The recorder uploads the recorded text via POST; TestVibe best-effort annotates steps with comments and then updates/creates the test file in the repository.
* This flow is launched from the [Test](/reference/forms/test.md) form via the Recorder button.
