Relates #3258 After a chat with @aslushnikov we add this in two iterations. The first one (this PR) is about scheduled runs for testing the latest tip-of-tree version of the browsers daily and the next PR is about opening an automated PRs once its passing (not sure if its worth to add for failing too) or sending Telegram/Slack notifications. Current status is that Firefox (around 2 hours) and WebKit (around 3-4 hours) works. Known issues which I fix before we merge: - ~~Changes in `test/base.fixture.ts` will get extracted in #3453~~ Feel free to review, current blockers are before we can merge: - ~~#3453~~ - potential git clone optimisation by aslushnikov |

Contributing Browser Patches
Firefox and WebKit have additional patches atop to expose necessary capabilities.
Ideally, all these changes should be upstreamed. For the time being, it is possible to setup a browser checkout and develop from there.
1. Setting up local browser checkout
From the playwright repo, run the following command:
$ ./browser_patches/prepare_checkout.sh firefox <path to checkout>
(you can optionally pass "webkit" for a webkit checkout)
If you don't have a checkout, don't pass a path and one will be created for you in ./browser_patches/firefox/checkout
NOTE: this command downloads GBs of data.
This command will:
- create a
browser_upstreamremote in the checkout - create a
playwright-buildbranch and apply all playwright-required patches to it.
2. Developing a new change
You want to create a new branch off the playwright-build branch.
Assuming that you're under ./browser_patches/firefox/checkout:
$ git checkout -b my-new-feature playwright-build
$ # develop my feature on the my-new-feature branch ....
3. Exporting your change to playwright repo
Once you're happy with the work you did in the browser-land, you want to export it to the playwright repo.
Assuming that you're in the root of the playwright repo and that your browser checkout has your feature branch checked out:
$ ./browser_patches/export.sh firefox <path to checkout>
This script will:
- create a new patch and put it to the
./browser_patches/firefox/patches/ - update the
./browser_patches/firefox/UPSTREAM_CONFIG.shif necessary - bump the
./browser_patches/firefox/BUILD_NUMBERnumber.
If you omit the path to your checkout, the script will assume one is located at ./browser_patches/firefox/checkout
Send a PR to the Playwright repo to be reviewed.
4. Rolling Playwright to the new browser build
Once the patch has been committed, the build bots will kick in, compile and upload a new browser version to all the platforms. Then you can roll the browser:
$ node utils/roll_browser.js chromium 123456
