PlayGodot (Game Automation)

PlayGodot is a game automation framework for Godot - like Playwright, but for games. It enables E2E testing, automated gameplay, and external control of Godot games via the native RemoteDebugger protocol.

Requirements:

Setup
bash
# Install PlayGodot
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
pip install playgodot
# Build custom Godot fork
git clone https://github.com/Randroids-Dojo/godot.git
cd godot && git checkout automation
scons platform=macos arch=arm64 target=editor -j8 # macOS Apple Silicon
# scons platform=macos arch=x86_64 target=editor -j8 # macOS Intel
# scons platform=linuxbsd target=editor -j8 # Linux
# scons platform=windows target=editor -j8 # Windows
Test Configuration (conftest.py)
python
import os
import pytest_asyncio
from pathlib import Path
from playgodot import Godot
GODOT_PROJECT = Path(__file__).parent.parent
GODOT_PATH = os.environ.get("GODOT_PATH", "/path/to/godot-fork")

str(GODOT_PROJECT),
headless=True,
timeout=15.0,

await g.wait_for_node("/root/Game")
yield g
Writing PlayGodot Tests
python
import pytest
GAME = "/root/Game"
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_game_starts_empty(game):
board = await game.call(GAME, "get_board_state")
assert board == ["", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ""]
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_clicking_cell(game):
await game.click("/root/Game/VBoxContainer/GameBoard/GridContainer/Cell4")
board = await game.call(GAME, "get_board_state")
assert board[4] == "X"
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_game_win(game):
for pos in [0, 3, 1, 4, 2]: # X wins top row
await game.call(GAME, "make_move", [pos])
is_active = await game.call(GAME, "is_game_active")
