v0.162.2

• fix(video): fix the new recordVideo API (#336)
• chore: explicitly use greenlet 1.0a1 (#321)

v0.162.1

Highlights

Touch

• Use page.tap() to automate native tap events. Like other input events, taps auto-wait for the UI element and actionability checks.

Network

• WebSocket inspection: Use page.on('websocket') and the new WebSocket class to inspect WebSocket connections.
• HAR export: Capture and export all the network activity as a HAR file. Pass recordHar while creating new browser contexts.
• Resource timing: Use request.timing() to retrieve and analyze timing data for the network requests.
• Proxy for browser context: Network proxy settings can now be configured per browser contexts with the proxy option on the new context.

Playwright CLI

• CLI codegen can now generate C# code. Run npx playwright-cli codegen --target=csharp to try!

Browser Versions

• Chromium 88.0.4316.0
• Mozilla Firefox 83.0b8
• WebKit 14.0

New APIs

• new class WebSocket
• new option proxy in browser.newContext() and browser.newPage()
• new option recordHar in browser.newContext() and browser.newPage()

• new page.on('websocket') event
• new page.tap() method
• new elementHandle.tap() method
• new page.touchscreen namespace to access Touchscreen
• new [request.timing] property
