[Feature]: VSC Extension/UI-Mode - Delete snapshot button

[MagicBertram]

🚀 Feature Request

I have a JSON list with a ton of URLs that Playwright processes in a loop to perform screenshot comparisons. Sometimes design changes occur and then I need to create new snapshots only for the corrected URLs. Currently, I manually delete the snapshot screenshots and run the test twice. This feels quite cumbersome.

It would be great, if you add a "snapshot delete button" in the VSC extension and UI mode.

Example

Motivation

It would be quicker and more convenient to have a 'Delete' or 'Recreate Snapshot & Test' button instead of doing it manually.

Hi @MagicBertram,

Thanks for your suggestion! We've discussed this internally, and before considering implementation, we want to ensure that this functionality provides significant value to a broad range of users rather than being tailored to a specific use case.

From our understanding, what you're requesting could potentially be handled by a custom function that deletes a specific snapshot after capturing a new one.
Could you clarify if that approach would work for your workflow?

Additionally, if you're suggesting bulk selection or automated cleanup, how do you envision the interface working?
Would this be per snapshot, per test run, or something else?

We'd love to better understand your expectations so we can assess feasibility and usability for the wider Playwright community.
Looking forward to your thoughts!
