Motivation: On Windows we call around 50 times `PrintDeps.exe` which
takes on a very fast machine 500+ms. On Linux we do it around 120 times
(`ldd`) which takes around 150ms.
This change validates the dependencies once on browser install (`npx
playwright install`). In case its failing, it will emit a warning, in
case of a success, it will create a marker file that the binary has been
validated. For future `launch()` calls, we'll read this file and if
exists, we'll not validate again. Otherwise we'll validate again.
Note: If the marker file is older than 30 days, the browser will be
validated again.
Motivation: Before this change if a language binding invoked the CLI
with `--help` or without any arguments (which will also show the help
text) it was suggesting that test/merge-reports/show-report is something
we support. After this change this does not get shown anymore.
This will keep UI Mode running in browser mode. When launched in normal
persistent context mode, we know when the persistent context closes, so
we can run the project teardown code.
Fixes https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/23801
This patch:
- changes the `childProcess` fixture to reliably SIGKILL all descendants
(children and grand-children, regardless of their process group).
This is achieved using the `ps` command to build the process tree, and
then send
`SIGKILL` to the descendant process groups.
- changes the `runCLI` fixture to **not** auto-close codegen by default;
the `childProcess` fixture will clean up all processes. This makes
sure that all `runCLI.waitFor()` commands actually wait until the
necessary
output.
- for a handful of tests that do actually want to auto-close codegen,
introduce an optional `autoCloseWhen` flag for the `runCLI` fixture
that makes sure to close the codegen once a certain output was reached.
This removes everything related to docker integration experiments that
we conducted over the last 6 months.
I'll send a follow-up with an alternative suggestion that was demo'ed on
a team meeting in the end of December.
This patch implements a new mode of network tethering for Playwright
server & its clients.
With this patch:
- playwright server could be launched with the
`--browser-proxy-mode=tether` flag to engage in the new mode
- a new type of client, "Network Tethering Client" can connect to the
server to provide network traffic to the browsers
- all clients that connect to the server with the `x-playwright-proxy:
*` header will get traffic from the "Network Tethering Client"
This patch also adds an environment variable
`PW_OWNED_BY_TETHER_CLIENT`. With this env, playwright server will
auto-close when the network tethering client disconnects. It will also
auto-close if the network client does not connect to the server in the
first 10 seconds of the server existence. This way we can ensure that
`npx playwright docker start` blocks terminal & controls the lifetime of
the started container.
