number.</li><li>Update <code>versions.js</code> with the new Chromium-to-Puppeteer version mapping and
update <code>lastMaintainedChromiumVersion</code> with the latest stable Chrome version.
You can find the corresponding version by going to <ahref="https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/"target="_blank"rel="noopener noreferrer">omahaproxy.appspot.com</a> then
searching in <code>Find Releases</code> for <code>r<revision></code>.</li><li>Run <code>npm run check</code>. If it fails, update
with the expected <code>devtools-protocol</code> version.</li><li>Run <code>npm run clean</code>, <code>npm run build</code> and <code>npm install</code>.</li><li>Run <code>npm test</code> and ensure that all tests pass. If a test fails,
