Sourced from @​playwright/test's releases.

v1.40.0

Test Generator Update

New tools to generate assertions:

• "Assert visibility" tool generates expect(locator).toBeVisible().
• "Assert value" tool generates expect(locator).toHaveValue(value).
• "Assert text" tool generates expect(locator).toContainText(text).

Here is an example of a generated test with assertions:

import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
test('test', async ({ page }) => {
await page.goto('https://playwright.dev/');
await page.getByRole('link', { name: 'Get started' }).click();
await expect(page.getByLabel('Breadcrumbs').getByRole('list')).toContainText('Installation');
await expect(page.getByLabel('Search')).toBeVisible();
await page.getByLabel('Search').click();
await page.getByPlaceholder('Search docs').fill('locator');
await expect(page.getByPlaceholder('Search docs')).toHaveValue('locator');
});

New APIs

• Option reason in page.close(), browserContext.close() and browser.close(). Close reason is reported for all operations interrupted by the closure.
• Option firefoxUserPrefs in browserType.launchPersistentContext(userDataDir).

Other Changes

• Methods download.path() and download.createReadStream() throw an error for failed and cancelled downloads.
