Playwright CLI - Exclude specific folder/sub-folder

Question

I have a playwright project that has many sub folders under the tests folder, for example a, b, and c.

In a specific scenario on one of my pipelines I need to exclude the folder c using Playwright CLI.

Please note that I don't want to create a dedicated playwright.config file, nor setting a dedicated playwright project. (no change to the source code at all)

Only thing I found is a way to specify the wanted folders like so npx playwright test tests/todo-page/, but not the other way around.

Is there any possible way to exclude that folder?

You can use --grep-invert as the folder structure is part of the test name. To exclude e.g. tests/smoke:

npx playwright test --grep-invert "^tests\/smoke"
