WebdriverIO v7 Crash Course (Sync Mode)

Check out this crash course on WebdriverIO v7 using the sync mode -


Please review the below info to follow along with this video using sync mode:

  • Along with installing all the packages in the video, you will also need to install the sync package - npm i @wdio/sync to support the sync mode
  • You will notice async/await in the auto-generated code by WebdriverIO. Simply remove async-await and just follow along with the video.

You also need to ensure you are NOT using Node v16 or above so that sync mode can be still supported. For all the other resources, check out the video description.

Note: Since sync mode will no longer be supported with Node v16, you should ideally start using async mode with WebdriverIO for new projects.
