About

PW Locator Inspector lets QA engineers and developers evaluate Playwright-style
locator chains directly against the live DOM, right inside Chrome DevTools — no
need to translate selectors by hand or guess why a locator matched the wrong node.

Features
- Paste any Playwright locator chain and see every matching element instantly.
- Supports locator(), filter({ hasText / has / hasNot }), getByRole, getByText,
  getByLabel, getByPlaceholder, getByTestId, getByAltText, getByTitle, first/last/
  nth, and .and()/.or().
- Multi-line Page Object chains with variable references (this.root = ...).
- Hover a result to highlight it on the page; click to jump straight to the
  element in the Elements panel.
- CSS, XPath, and text= selectors.

Matching mirrors Playwright defaults (substring + case-insensitive text matching;
pass { exact: true } to tighten).
