- Instead of capturing snapshots on demand, we now stream them
from each frame every 100ms.
- Certain actions can also force snapshots at particular moment using
"checkpoints".
- Trace viewer is able to show the page snapshot at a particular
timestamp, or using a "checkpoint" snapshot.
- Small optimization to not process stylesheets if CSSOM was not used.
There still is a lot of room for improvement.
- Fill and click actions pass metadata to Progress.
- Progress reports success/failure through instrumentation.
- Tracer consumes ActionResult and ActionMetadata and records them.
Currently, only click and fill actions pass metadata to
contain the size of the change. Everything else should follow.
- We do not need the public BrowserType different from BrowserTypeBase anymore.
- Removing 'logName' parameter from runAbortableTask - it will
be used for metadata instead.
This introduces basic tracing enabled in our tests.
What is captured:
- network resources;
- snapshots at the start of most actions;
- snapshot after the test failure.
How this integrates with test runner:
- context fixture calls private method context._initSnapshotter() and uses Tracer to trace all events;
- all tests share a single test-results/trace-storage directory to store blobs;
- each test has its own trace file.
- npm run show-trace opens a bare-minimum trace viewer that renders snapshots.
