description: Roll Playwright .NET to a new version
---
Help the user roll to a new version of Playwright.
../../../ROLLING.md contains general instructions and scripts.
Start with running the roll script to update the version and regenerate the API to see the state of things.
```bash
./build.sh --roll <driver-version>
```
Afterwards, work through the list of changes that need to be backported.
You can find a list of pull requests that might need to be taking into account in the issue titled "Backport changes".
Work through them one-by-one and check off the items that you have handled.
Not all of them will be relevant, some might have partially been reverted, etc. - so feel free to check with the upstream release branch.
Rolling includes:
- updating client implementation to match changes in the upstream JS implementation (see ../playwright/packages/playwright-core/src/client)
- adding a couple of new tests to verify new/changed functionality
## Tips & Tricks
- Project checkouts are in the parent directory (`../`).
- when updating checkboxes, store the issue content into /tmp and edit it there, then update the issue based on the file
- use the "gh" cli to interact with GitHub
