version: "1.0.1" name: pomwright-v2-migration description: > Migrate POMWright page objects to v2 PageObject from either v1 BasePage or the v1.5 bridge (BasePageV1toV2). Use when asked to migrate, convert, or upgrade POMWright page objects to v2, or when working with PageObject. Covers: changing class inheritance and constructor signature, translating addSchema/initLocatorSchemas to defineLocators with v2 DSL, adding pageActionsToPerformAfterNavigation, updating call-site syntax (getLocator, getNestedLocator, getLocatorSchema), updating filter/index/update/mutation patterns, migrating fixtures, navigation, sessionStorage, logging, and adopting the @step decorator.

POMWright v2 Migration (BasePage / BasePageV1toV2 -> PageObject)

Migrate page objects to PageObject from either v1 BasePage or the v1.5 bridge BasePageV1toV2. This is the final migration target; PageObject is the stable v2 API.

Determine source version

Before starting, identify which base class the POC currently extends:

If the source is v1 BasePage and has not yet been migrated through the bridge, this skill handles the direct migration. All schema translation and call-site changes still apply.

Workflow

1. Inventory the target POC file and its consumers (tests, fixtures, helpers that import it).
2. Migrate the class declaration and constructor. See references/class-migration.md.
3. Migrate locator definitions into defineLocators() using the v2 add() DSL. See references/locator-registration.md.
4. Remove `initLocatorSchemas()` once all schemas are moved to defineLocators().
5. Add `pageActionsToPerformAfterNavigation()` (required abstract method). See references/class-migration.md.
6. Update call-site syntax in tests, fixtures, and helpers. See references/call-site-migration.md.
7. Migrate fixtures and helpers (navigation, sessionStorage, logging, @step). See references/fixture-and-helpers.md.
8. Remove v1 imports (GetByMethod, BasePage, BasePageV1toV2, BasePageOptions, ExtractUrlPathType, ExtractBaseUrlType, ExtractFullUrlType, GetLocatorBase, LocatorSchemaWithoutPath).
9. Verify by running tests.

Key rules

• v2 PageObject constructor takes (page, baseUrl, urlPath, options?) - no testInfo, no pocName, no PlaywrightReportLogger.
• pocName is replaced by options.label (defaults to class name, so often omittable).
• testInfo and PlaywrightReportLogger are no longer injected into PageObject. Use the log fixture from pomwright instead if logging is needed.
• defineLocators() is required; initLocatorSchemas() does not exist in v2.
• pageActionsToPerformAfterNavigation() is a required abstract method; return null or an array of async callbacks.
• v2 getLocator/getNestedLocator/getLocatorSchema are synchronous (no await).
• v2 getNestedLocator does not accept index maps. Use getLocatorSchema(path).nth(subPath, index).getNestedLocator() instead.
• filter replaces v1 addFilter. nth replaces v1 index maps. Both can be chained in any order.
• v2 filter.has/filter.hasNot accept registry path strings in addition to Locator instances.
• navigation helper is exposed on PageObject: this.navigation.gotoThisPage(), this.navigation.expectThisPage(), etc.
• sessionStorage API changed: boolean parameters replaced by options objects.
• @step decorator is available for wrapping methods in Playwright test steps.
• v1 URL type helpers renamed: ExtractBaseUrlType -> BaseUrlTypeFromOptions, ExtractUrlPathType -> UrlPathTypeFromOptions, ExtractFullUrlType -> FullUrlTypeFromOptions. The options shape flattened from { urlOptions: { ... } } to { baseUrlType, urlPathType }.
