There are two problems, exposed by existing tests:
- We do not send Page.startScreeencast before Runtime.runIfWaitingForDebugger
because we launch video recorder in between. This stalls when the page is busy
immediately after resuming, e.g. with alert().
Fixed by starting video recorder in advance.
- We wait for the first frame that may not come - for example, context-wide interception
is blocking essential resource and first frame.
Fixed by only waiting for the first frame before reporting the video, not the page.
For some reason typescript can't find electron types when using
nested tsconfig - workaround the bug.
Drive-by: surface installer compilation problems.
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:

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.
Fixes#5902
This patch rolls Firefox to r1237. Upstream firefox still struggles
with crashes with certain videos: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1697004
This PR also workarounds this crash by disabling webrender.
