Console logs

Console messages logged in the page can be brought into the Playwright context.

// Listen for all console logs
page.on('console', msg => console.log(msg.text()))

// Listen for all console events and handle errors
page.on('console', msg => {
  if (msg.type() === 'error')
    console.log(`Error text: "${msg.text()}"`);
});

// Get the next console log
const [msg] = await Promise.all([
  page.waitForEvent('console'),
  // Issue console.log inside the page
  page.evaluate(() => {
    console.log('hello', 42, { foo: 'bar' });
  }),
]);

// Deconstruct console log arguments
await msg.args[0].jsonValue() // hello
await msg.args[1].jsonValue() // 42

# Listen for all console logs
page.on("console", msg => print(msg.text))

# Listen for all console events and handle errors
page.on("console", lambda msg: print(f"error: {msg.text}") if msg.type == "error" else None)

# Get the next console log
async with page.expect_console_message() as msg_info:
    # Issue console.log inside the page
    await page.evaluate("console.log('hello', 42, { foo: 'bar' })")
msg = await msg_info.value

# Deconstruct print arguments
await msg.args[0].json_value() # hello
await msg.args[1].json_value() # 42

# Listen for all console logs
page.on("console", msg => print(msg.text))

# Listen for all console events and handle errors
page.on("console", lambda msg: print(f"error: {msg.text}") if msg.type == "error" else None)

# Get the next console log
with page.expect_console_message() as msg_info:
    # Issue console.log inside the page
    page.evaluate("console.log('hello', 42, { foo: 'bar' })")
msg = msg_info.value

# Deconstruct print arguments
msg.args[0].json_value() # hello
msg.args[1].json_value() # 42

Page errors

Listen for uncaught exceptions in the page with the pagerror event.

// Log all uncaught errors to the terminal
page.on('pageerror', exception => {
  console.log(`Uncaught exception: "${exception}"`);
});

// Navigate to a page with an exception.
await page.goto('data:text/html,<script>throw new Error("Test")</script>');

# Log all uncaught errors to the terminal
page.on("pageerror", lambda exc: print(f"uncaught exception: {exc}"))

# Navigate to a page with an exception.
await page.goto("data:text/html,<script>throw new Error('test')</script>")

# Log all uncaught errors to the terminal
page.on("pageerror", lambda exc: print(f"uncaught exception: {exc}"))
