This patch adds a general-purpose grid framework to parallelize
Playwright across multiple agents.
This patch adds two CLI commands to manage grid:
- `npx playwright experimental-grid-server` - to launch grid
- `npx playwrigth experimental-grid-agent` - to launch agent in a host
environment.
Grid server accepts an `--agent-factory` argument. A simple
`factory.js` might look like this:
```js
const child_process = require('child_process');
module.exports = {
name: 'My Simple Factory',
capacity: Infinity, // How many workers launch per agent
timeout: 10_000, // 10 seconds timeout to create agent
launch: ({agentId, gridURL, playwrightVersion}) => child_process.spawn(`npx`, [
'playwright'
'experimental-grid-agent',
'--grid-url', gridURL,
'--agent-id', agentId,
], {
cwd: __dirname,
shell: true,
stdio: 'inherit',
}),
};
```
With this `factory.js`, grid server could be launched like this:
```bash
npx playwright experimental-grid-server --factory=./factory.js
```
Once launched, it could be used with Playwright Test using env variable:
```bash
PW_GRID=http://localhost:3000 npx playwright test
```
- Source now lives at `src/test`.
- Former folio tests live at `tests/playwright-test`.
- We use `src/test/internal.ts` that exposes base test without
Playwright fixtures for most tests (to avoid modifications for now).
- Test types live in `types/testFoo.d.ts`.
- Stable test runner is installed to `tests/config/test-runner` during `npm install`.
- All deps including test-only are now listed in `package.json`.
Non-test deps must also be listed in `build_package.js` to get included.
This changes the root object from RemoteBrowser to Playwright,
similar to local driver connection. This way, any remote connection
gets a Playwright object.
This also starts reusing PlaywrightServer class, and introduces
`cli run-server` hidden command that runs ws server on the
specified port.
Previous structure:
```
RemoteBrowser
- browser (using ConnectedBrowser for remote-specific behavior)
- selectors (special instance for this remote connection)
```
New structure:
```
Playwright
- ...
- selectors (special instance for this remote connection)
- preLaunchedBrowser (using ConnectedBrowser for remote-specific behavior)
```
- Introduce internal "out of process" start()/stop() mode.
- This mode is used both in regular tests and installation tests.
- Emulate basic driver installation, browser download and running.
