Implement page.getByPlaceholder(placeholderText: string, options?)
Feature Description
With a getByPlaceholder method, k6 Browser scripts can target inputs or textareas by their placeholder attribute: e.g., page.getByPlaceholder('Search…'). This is particularly useful for quick form tests where the placeholder uniquely identifies a field. The implementation would locate all input and textarea elements with a matching placeholder, respecting options for matcher type (exact, regex, etc.). This addition reduces the need for ad-hoc CSS selectors and mirrors best practices in modern test automation.
Playwright docs: https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-page#page-get-by-placeholder
Note: this is only to be implemented on page.
This should work after the implementation work:
await page.setContent(`
<html><body>
<input placeholder="Search…" />
</body></html>
`);
const searchInput = page.getByPlaceholder('Search…');
await searchInput.fill('playwright');
