playwright 1.6.0

npm / playwright / 1.6.0 source ↗

Highlights

Touch

  • Use page.tap() to automate native tap events. Like other input events, taps auto-wait for the UI element and actionability checks.

Network

  • WebSocket inspection: Use page.on('websocket') and the new WebSocket class to inspect WebSocket connections.
  • HAR export: Capture and export all the network activity as a HAR file. Pass recordHar while creating new browser contexts.
  • Resource timing: Use request.timing() to retrieve and analyze timing data for the network requests.
  • Proxy for browser context: Network proxy settings can now be configured per browser contexts with the proxy option on the new context.

Playwright CLI

  • CLI codegen can now generate C# code. Run npx playwright-cli codegen --target=csharp to try!

Browser Versions

  • Chromium 88.0.4316.0
  • Mozilla Firefox 83.0b8
  • WebKit 14.0
