- 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.
api(trace): introduce artifacts options
This introduces launch({ artifactsPath }) and newContext({ relativeArtifactsPath, recordTrace }) options.
- artifactsPath option controls the directory where all artifacts go. If not passed, artifacts are not collected.
- relativeArtifactsPath can be used to put context-specific artifacts into a subfolder. If not passed, shared artifactsPath is used.
- recordTrace controls trace recording.
We also expose trace types under playwright/types/trace.d.ts.
In the follow up:
- videos will be put into artifactsPath;
- downloads will be put into artifactsPath, or keep using existing downloadsPath when artifactsPath is not specified.
