There are 3 ways to import `@playwright/test` library in the modern Node.js ecosystem:
- Using `require`: works great, this patch doesn't change it
- Using `import` statement from `.mjs` file - we have wrong `default` for @playwright/test that should be a `test`. This is what test checks for
- Using `import test from '@playwright/test'` from `.ts` file - was broken because TypeScript thought it's a CJS module, whereas it's a ESM module in reality.
Also, typescript types import from `.d.ts` file was broken because we had no default export (`export *` syntax does not export default).
This reverts commit a25b11659be8887b700311180fcd3653aa9e472b.
In a discussion with Dmitry Gozman we decided to revert this and instead
proceed with the following approach:
- rename `//browser_patches/firefox` to `//browser_patches/firefox-beta`
- rename `//browser_patches/firefox-stable` folder to
`//browser_patches/firefox`
In all of the folders, we will keep the `BUILD_NUMBER` original so that
it doesn't clash on the CDN.
This patch:
- starts downloading Firefox Stable equivalent by default
- starts running Firefox-Stable on our smoke tests (tests-1)
- starts running Firefox-Beta on our CQ1 tests (tests-2)
Note: there's a little confusion right now with browser names:
- `firefox-stable` - firefox-stable equivalent
- `firefox`- firefox-beta equivalent
I'll rename `firefox` to `firefox-beta` in a follow-up.
Fixes#6817
- 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 makes it much nicer to use `BrowserType` because it no longer has a template.
Technically a breaking change because of the rare edge case where someone used their own non-browser type inside the template, but I don't consider that intended behavior and think this is fine.
Browser registry is responsible for 3 things:
1. Remove downloaded browsers if there are no packages that refer to them
2. Install default browsers needed for the current package
3. Install browsers on-demand when used through Playwright CLI
Currently, registry relies on a single "download" field in `browsers.json`
to carry both (1) and (2). However, browsers in (3) are marked as
`download: false` so that they aren't installed automatically in (2), so
auto-remove procedure in (1) removes them on subsequent installation.
One possible approach to fix this would be modifying package's `browsers.json` to
change `download: false` to `true` when browsers are installed with
Playwright CLI. This approach was explored here:
bc04a51800
We decided against this since we have a history of issues related to
package modifications after NPM installation. This breaks all
sorts of yarn/npm caching mechanisms.
Instead, this patch is a two-step refactor:
- remove the "download" field in `browsers.json`. Now, all registries
(including old ones from previously-released versions) will retain any
browsers that are mentioned in the `browsers.json`.
- add a new flag "installByDefault", that is **only used** for default
installation.
With this change, the registry tasks are done like this:
- (1) auto-removal: if browser has a back reference, it is retained,
otherwise it is removed from registry
- (2) default installation: use only `installByDefault` to carry default installations
- (3) CLI installation: simply installs browsers. Since we retain
everythings that's referenced in (1), browsers aren't removed.
