 1. Install the Playwright dependency in the `core` directory: `npm ci` 
 2. Download the correct browsers: `npx playwright install`
 
+## Configuring Docker
+
+Ionic uses [Docker](https://www.docker.com) to provide a way to run tests locally in the same environment that is used on CI. Using Docker is **optional** as all tests can be run locally on your host machine, but there are a few reasons why you might want to use Docker to run tests locally:
+
+1. You want to run screenshot tests against the same ground truths used on CI to test your work. Screenshots must be tested in a consistent environment otherwise there will be screenshot mismatches. Without Docker, you would first need to generate ground truths in your local environment.
+2. You want to update ground truths locally. Ground truths can be updated using a GitHub Action on CI, but this can take ~15 minutes.
+3. You are a community contributor and you do not have access to the GitHub Action to update ground truths.
+4. You want to debug an issue that only happen on CI. While this is rare, there are sometimes Linux-specific issues that pop up during development.
+
+The [Running Tests](#running-tests) and [Managing Screenshots](#managing-screenshots) sections show how to perform various tasks in Playwright with Docker. The section below shows how to configure your environment to get set up with Docker.
+
+### Installing Docker
+
+Docker can be installed by [following the steps on the Docker website](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/).
+
+### Configuring Docker for Headed Tests (Optional)
+
+Additional software is needed to run headed tests inside of Docker. The Docker-specific test commands such as `npm run test.e2e.docker` are configured to use this additional software, but it is up to the developer to ensure that the software is installed and running.
+
+Playwright relies on [XServer](https://www.x.org/wiki/XServer/), a windowing system used to draw and move windows on a display, in order to run tests in headed mode. Follow the steps below to install XServer on your computer.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The following instructions are based off https://www.oddbird.net/2022/11/30/headed-playwright-in-docker/
+
+#### macOS
+
+macOS uses [XQuartz](https://www.xquartz.org) to use XServer on macOS.
+
+1. Install [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) if not already installed. You can run `brew --version` to check if Homebrew is installed.
+2. Install XQuartz: `brew install --cask xquartz`
+3. Open XQuartz, go to `Preferences > Security`, and check “Allow connections from network clients”.
+4. Restart your computer.
+5. Start XQuartz from the command line: `xhost +localhost`
+6. Open Docker Desktop and edit settings to give access to `/tmp/.X11-unix` in `Preferences > Resources > File sharing`.
+7. In the `core` directory run `echo host.docker.internal:0 > docker-display.txt`. This information is used to set the `DISPLAY` environment variable which tells Playwright how to render a headed UI from the Docker container.
+8. In the `core` directory run `echo /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix > docker-display-volume.txt`. This information is used to make XServer available inside of the Docker container.
+
+#### Windows
+
+Windows has a native XServer called [WSLg](https://github.com/microsoft/wslg#readme) that is included as part of the [Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)](https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/9P9TQF7MRM4R?hl=en-us&gl=US). If you are running Docker Desktop on Windows 10 or 11 you likely already have both WSL and WSLg installed. The following steps show how to verify the WSL and WSLg are installed as well as how to configure your environment for headed tests in Docker.
+
+If either of the below verification checks fail, then developers should [download the latest version of WSL](https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/9P9TQF7MRM4R?hl=en-us&gl=US).
+
+1. To verify WSL is installed, launch "WSL" from the start menu. If "WSL" does not show up in the start menu then you do not have WSL installed.
+2. With WSL open, verify that WSLg is installed: `ls -a -w 1 /mnt/wslg`. If the command fails with `No such file or directory` then your system is either missing WSL or running an old version.
+3. In the `core` directory run `echo :0 > docker-display.txt`. This information is used to set the `DISPLAY` environment variable which tells Playwright how to render a headed UI from the Docker container.
+4. In the `core` directory run `echo /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix > docker-display-volume.txt`. This information is used to make XServer available inside of the Docker container.

+### Running Tests Inside Docker
+
+While `npm run test.e2e` can be used to run tests in the same environment that you are developing in, `npm run test.e2e.docker` can be used to run tests in a Docker environment provided by the Ionic team. This command supports all the same features as `npm run test.e2e` detailed in the previous section.
+
+This command builds a Docker image before tests run. It will also re-build the Docker image in the event that a Playwright update was merged into the repo.
+
+Note that the Playwright report will not automatically open in your web browser when tests are complete because the tests were run in Docker. Run `npm run test.report` outside of Docker to open the most recent test report.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Additional setup is needed to run Playwright tests with headed mode in Docker. See below for more information.
+
+### Headed vs. Headless Tests
+
+Playwright tests in Ionic are run in headless mode by default. This means that a visual representation of the browser does not appear on your computer while running.
+
+No additional steps are needed in order to run the tests in headless mode:
+
+```shell
+# Will run tests in headless mode
+npm run test.e2e src/components/chip
+```
+
+ Playwright supports the `--headed` flag to run in headed mode which causes the visual representation of the browser to appear:
+ 
+ ```shell
+ # Will run tests in headed mode
+ npm run test.e2e src/components/chip -- --headed
+ ```
+
 ## Managing Screenshots
 
-### Generating or Updating Ground Truths (Local Development)
+If you are running a test that takes a screenshot, you must first generate the reference screenshot from your reference branch. This is known as generating a "ground truth screenshot". All other screenshots will be compared to this ground truth. 
 
-If you are running a test that takes a screenshot, you must first generate the reference screenshot from your reference branch. This is known as generating a "ground truth screenshot". All other screenshots will be compared to this ground truth. Alternatively, if the reference branch has changed since the last time you generated ground truths you may need to update your local ground truths.
+### Generating or Updating Ground Truths With Docker (Local Development)
+
+We recommend generating ground truths inside of [Docker](https://www.docker.com). This allows anyone contributing to Ionic Framework to create or update ground truths.
+
+To create or update ground truths, run the following command:
+
+```shell
+npm run test.e2e.docker.update-snapshots
+```
+
+Optionally, you can pass a directory to only update the ground truths for that directory & subdirectories. This is useful when working on a specific component.
+
+```shell
+npm run test.e2e.docker.update-snapshots src/components/alert/
+```
+
+The resulting screenshots should be committed and pushed to your branch.
+
+### Generating or Updating Ground Truths Without Docker (Local Development)
+
+While we recommend generating ground truths inside of Docker it is possible to generate ground truths without it. Note that these generated ground truths can only be used for local testing and will not update the ground truths stored in the repo.
+
+If the reference branch has changed since the last time you generated ground truths you may need to update your local ground truths.
 
 For most types of work the reference branch is typically `main`. Features are merged into a different branch, so developers should use that as the reference branch. For example, if branch `foo` will be merged into `bar`, then the reference branch is `bar`.

 When making an intentional visual change, you will need to update the ground truth screenshots or add new ones. It is important that the ground truth and comparison screenshots are taken in the same environment, so do not update the ground truth screenshots locally and commit them to the repo.
