|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To sum up, the only differences between `puppeteer-core` and `puppeteer` are:
|
You should only use `puppeteer-core` if you are [connecting to a remote browser](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.puppeteer.connect) or [managing browsers yourself](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.browserfetcher). If you are managing browsers yourself, you will need to call [`puppeteer.launch`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.puppeteernode.launch) with an explicit [`executablePath`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.launchoptions.executablepath) or [`channel`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.launchoptions.channel).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- `puppeteer-core` doesn't automatically download Chromium when installed.
|
When using `puppeteer-core`, remember to change the import:
|
||||||
- `puppeteer-core` ignores all `PUPPETEER_*` env variables.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In most cases, you'll be fine using the `puppeteer` package.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
However, you should use `puppeteer-core` if:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- you're building another end-user product or library atop of DevTools protocol. For example, one might build a PDF generator using `puppeteer-core` and write a custom `install.js` script that downloads [`headless_shell`](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/lkgr/headless/README.md) instead of Chromium to save disk space.
|
|
||||||
- you're bundling Puppeteer to use in Chrome Extension / browser with the DevTools protocol where downloading an additional Chromium binary is unnecessary.
|
|
||||||
- you're building a set of tools where `puppeteer-core` is one of the ingredients and you want to postpone `install.js` script execution until Chromium is about to be used.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When using `puppeteer-core`, remember to change the _include_ line:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
```ts
|
||||||
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer-core');
|
import puppeteer from 'puppeteer-core';
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You will then need to call [`puppeteer.connect`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.puppeteer.connect) or [`puppeteer.launch`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.puppeteernode.launch) with an explicit `executablePath` or `channel` option.

|
||||||
await page.screenshot({path: 'example.png'});
|
await page.goto('https://developers.google.com/web/');
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
// Type into search box.
|
||||||
|
await page.type('.devsite-search-field', 'Headless Chrome');
|
||||||
|
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
// Wait for the results page to load and display the results.
|
||||||
|
const resultsSelector = '.gsc-results .gs-title';
|
||||||
|
await page.waitForSelector(resultsSelector);
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
// Extract the results from the page.
|
||||||
|
const links = await page.evaluate(resultsSelector => {
|
||||||
|
return [...document.querySelectorAll(resultsSelector)].map(anchor => {
|
||||||
|
const title = anchor.textContent.split('|')[0].trim();
|
||||||
|
return `${title} - ${anchor.href}`;
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
}, resultsSelector);
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

### Running in Docker
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Puppeteer offers a Docker image that includes Chromium along with the required dependencies and a pre-installed Puppeteer version. The image is available via the [GitHub Container Registry](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/pkgs/container/puppeteer). The latest image is tagged as `latest` and other tags match Puppeteer versions. For example,
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```sh
|
|
||||||
docker pull ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:latest # pulls the latest
|
|
||||||
docker pull ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:16.1.0 # pulls the image that contains Puppeteer v16.1.0
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The image is meant for running the browser in the sandbox mode and therefore, running the image requires the `SYS_ADMIN` capability. For example,
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```sh
|
|
||||||
docker run -i --init --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN --rm ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:latest node -e "`cat docker/test/smoke-test.js`"
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Replace the path to [`smoke-test.js`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/main/docker/test/smoke-test.js) with a path to your script.
|
|
||||||
The script can import or require the `puppeteer` module because it's pre-installed inside the image.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Currently, the image includes the LTS version of Node.js. If you need to build an image based on a different base image, you can use our [`Dockerfile`](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/main/docker/Dockerfile) as the starting point.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Working with Chrome Extensions
|
|

|
||||||
Puppeteer can be used for testing Chrome Extensions.
|
|
||||||
|

<!-- [START debugging] -->
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Debugging tips
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Turn off headless mode - sometimes it's useful to see what the browser is
|
|
||||||
displaying. Instead of launching in headless mode, launch a full version of
|
|
||||||
the browser using `headless: false`:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({headless: false});
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Slow it down - the `slowMo` option slows down Puppeteer operations by the
|
|
||||||
specified amount of milliseconds. It's another way to help see what's going on.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
|
|
||||||
headless: false,
|
|
||||||
slowMo: 250, // slow down by 250ms
|
|
||||||
});
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. Capture console output - You can listen for the `console` event.
|
|
||||||
This is also handy when debugging code in `page.evaluate()`:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
page.on('console', msg => console.log('PAGE LOG:', msg.text()));
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
await page.evaluate(() => console.log(`url is ${location.href}`));
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4. Use debugger in application code browser
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There are two execution context: node.js that is running test code, and the browser
|
|
||||||
running application code being tested. This lets you debug code in the
|
|
||||||
application code browser; ie code inside `evaluate()`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Use `{devtools: true}` when launching Puppeteer:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({devtools: true});
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Change default test timeout:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
jest: `jest.setTimeout(100000);`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
jasmine: `jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL = 100000;`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
mocha: `this.timeout(100000);` (don't forget to change test to use [function and not '=>'](https://stackoverflow.com/a/23492442))
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Add an evaluate statement with `debugger` inside / add `debugger` to an existing evaluate statement:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
await page.evaluate(() => {
|
|
||||||
debugger;
|
|
||||||
});
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The test will now stop executing in the above evaluate statement, and chromium will stop in debug mode.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
5. Use debugger in node.js
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will let you debug test code. For example, you can step over `await page.click()` in the node.js script and see the click happen in the application code browser.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note that you won't be able to run `await page.click()` in
|
|
||||||
DevTools console due to this [Chromium bug](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=833928). So if
|
|
||||||
you want to try something out, you have to add it to your test file.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Add `debugger;` to your test, eg:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
debugger;
|
|
||||||
await page.click('a[target=_blank]');
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Set `headless` to `false`
|
|
||||||
- Run `node --inspect-brk`, eg `node --inspect-brk node_modules/.bin/jest tests`
|
|
||||||
- In Chrome open `chrome://inspect/#devices` and click `inspect`
|
|
||||||
- In the newly opened test browser, type `F8` to resume test execution
|
|
||||||
- Now your `debugger` will be hit and you can debug in the test browser
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
6. Enable verbose logging - internal DevTools protocol traffic
|
|
||||||
will be logged via the [`debug`](https://github.com/visionmedia/debug) module under the `puppeteer` namespace.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Basic verbose logging
|
|
||||||
env DEBUG="puppeteer:*" node script.js
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Protocol traffic can be rather noisy. This example filters out all Network domain messages
|
|
||||||
env DEBUG="puppeteer:*" env DEBUG_COLORS=true node script.js 2>&1 | grep -v '"Network'
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
7. Debug your Puppeteer (node) code easily, using [ndb](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/ndb)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- `npm install -g ndb` (or even better, use [npx](https://github.com/zkat/npx)!)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- add a `debugger` to your Puppeteer (node) code
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- add `ndb` (or `npx ndb`) before your test command. For example:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`ndb jest` or `ndb mocha` (or `npx ndb jest` / `npx ndb mocha`)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- debug your test inside chromium like a boss!

# Chrome Extensions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Puppeteer can be used for testing Chrome Extensions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
:::caution
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Extensions in Chrome/Chromium currently only work in non-headless mode and experimental Chrome headless mode.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
:::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The following is code for getting a handle to the [background page](https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/background_pages) of an extension whose source is located in `./my-extension`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ts
|
||||||
|
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(async () => {
|
||||||
|
const pathToExtension = require('path').join(__dirname, 'my-extension');
|
||||||
|
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
|
||||||
|
headless: 'chrome',
|
||||||
|
args: [
|
||||||
|
`--disable-extensions-except=${pathToExtension}`,

# Debugging
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Debugging with Puppeteer can be an arduous task. There is no _single_ method for debugging all possible issues since Puppeteer touches many distinct components of a browser such as network requests and Web APIs. On a high note, Puppeteer provides _several_ methods for debugging which hopefully does cover all possible issues.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Background
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In general, there are two possible sources of an issue: Code running on Node.js (which we call _server code_), and [code running in the browser](<[`Page.evaluate()`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.page.evaluate)>) (which we call _client code_). There is also a third possible source being the browser itself (which we call _internal code_), but if you suspect this is the source **after attempting the methods below**, we suggest [searching existing issues](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/issues) before [filing an issue](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/issues/new/choose).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Debugging methods for all situations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These methods can be used to debug any situation. These should be used as a quick sanity check before diving into more complex methods.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Turn off [`headless`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.browserlaunchargumentoptions.headless)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Sometimes it's useful to see what the browser is displaying. Instead of launching in [`headless`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.browserlaunchargumentoptions.headless) mode, launch a full version of the browser with [`headless`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.browserlaunchargumentoptions.headless) set to `false`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ts
|
||||||
|
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({headless: false});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Puppeteer "slow-mo"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The [`slowMo`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.browserconnectoptions.slowmo) option slows down Puppeteer operations by a specified amount of milliseconds. It's another way to help see what's going on.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ts
|
||||||
|
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
|
||||||
|
headless: false,
|
||||||
|
slowMo: 250, // slow down by 250ms
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Debugging methods for client code
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Capture `console.*` output
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Since client code runs in the browser, doing `console.*` in client code will not directly log to Node.js. However, you can [listen](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.page.on) for the [`console`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.pageeventobject.console) event which returns a payload with the logged text.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ts
|
||||||
|
page.on('console', msg => console.log('PAGE LOG:', msg.text()));
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
await page.evaluate(() => console.log(`url is ${location.href}`));
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Use the debugger in the browser
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Set [`devtools`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.browserlaunchargumentoptions.devtools) to `true` when launching Puppeteer:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ts
|
||||||
|
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({devtools: true});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Add `debugger` inside any client code you want debugged. For example,
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ts
|
||||||
|
await page.evaluate(() => {
|
||||||
|
debugger;
|
||||||
|
});
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Browser will now stop in the location the `debugger` word is found in debug mode.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Debugging methods for server code
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Use the debugger in Node.js (Chrome/Chromium-only)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Since server code intermingles with client code, this method of debugging is closely tied with the browser. For example, you can step over `await page.click()` in the server script and see the click happen in the browser.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that you won't be able to run `await page.click()` in DevTools console due to this [Chromium bug](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=833928), so if
|
||||||
|
you want to try something out, you have to add it to your test file.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Set [`headless`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.browserlaunchargumentoptions.headless) to `false`.
|
||||||
|
2. Add `debugger` to any server code you want debugged. For example,
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ts
|
||||||
|
debugger;
|
||||||
|
await page.click('a[target=_blank]');
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Run your server code with `--inspect-brk`. For example,
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
node --inspect-brk path/to/script.js
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. In the opened Chrome/Chromium browser, open `chrome://inspect/#devices` and click `inspect`.
|
||||||
|
5. In the newly opened test browser, press `F8` to resume test execution.
|
||||||
|
6. Now your `debugger` statement will be hit and you can debug in the test browser.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Use [ndb](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/ndb)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Install `ndb`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
npm install -g ndb
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Add `debugger` to any server code you want debugged. For example,
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ts
|
||||||
|
debugger;
|
||||||
|
await page.click('a[target=_blank]');
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Add `ndb` before your test command. For example,
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
ndb node path/to/script.js
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. Debug your test inside chromium like a boss!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Log DevTools protocol traffic
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If all else fails, it's possible there may be an issue between Puppeteer and the DevTools protocol. You can debug this by setting the `DEBUG` environment variable before running your script. This will log internal traffic via [`debug`](https://github.com/visionmedia/debug) under the `puppeteer` namespace.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
# Basic verbose logging
|
||||||
|
env DEBUG="puppeteer:*" node script.js
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Protocol traffic can be rather noisy. This example filters out all Network domain messages
|
||||||
|
env DEBUG="puppeteer:*" env DEBUG_COLORS=true node script.js 2>&1 | grep -v '"Network'
|
||||||
|
```

# Docker
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Puppeteer offers a Docker image that includes Chromium along with the required dependencies and a pre-installed Puppeteer version. The image is available via the [GitHub Container Registry](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/pkgs/container/puppeteer). The latest image is tagged as `latest` and other tags match Puppeteer versions. For example,
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
docker pull ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:latest # pulls the latest
|
||||||
|
docker pull ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:16.1.0 # pulls the image that contains Puppeteer v16.1.0
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The image is meant for running the browser in sandbox mode and therefore, running the image requires the `SYS_ADMIN` capability.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Usage
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To use the docker image directly, run:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
docker run -i --init --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN --rm ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:latest node -e "$(cat path/to/script.js)"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
where `path/to/script.js` is the path relative to your working directory. Note the image requires the `SYS_ADMIN` capability since the browser runs in sandbox mode.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you need to build an image based on a different base image, you can use our [`Dockerfile`](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/main/docker/Dockerfile) as the starting point.

|
|

|
|
||||||
To sum up, the only differences between `puppeteer-core` and `puppeteer` are:
|
You should only use `puppeteer-core` if you are [connecting to a remote browser](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.puppeteer.connect) or [managing browsers yourself](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.browserfetcher). If you are managing browsers yourself, you will need to call [`puppeteer.launch`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.puppeteernode.launch) with an explicit [`executablePath`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.launchoptions.executablepath) or [`channel`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.launchoptions.channel).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- `puppeteer-core` doesn't automatically download Chromium when installed.
|
When using `puppeteer-core`, remember to change the import:
|
||||||
- `puppeteer-core` ignores all `PUPPETEER_*` env variables.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In most cases, you'll be fine using the `puppeteer` package.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
However, you should use `puppeteer-core` if:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- you're building another end-user product or library atop of DevTools protocol. For example, one might build a PDF generator using `puppeteer-core` and write a custom `install.js` script that downloads [`headless_shell`](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/lkgr/headless/README.md) instead of Chromium to save disk space.
|
|
||||||
- you're bundling Puppeteer to use in Chrome Extension / browser with the DevTools protocol where downloading an additional Chromium binary is unnecessary.
|
|
||||||
- you're building a set of tools where `puppeteer-core` is one of the ingredients and you want to postpone `install.js` script execution until Chromium is about to be used.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When using `puppeteer-core`, remember to change the _include_ line:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
```ts
|
||||||
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer-core');
|
import puppeteer from 'puppeteer-core';
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You will then need to call [`puppeteer.connect`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.puppeteer.connect) or [`puppeteer.launch`](https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.puppeteernode.launch) with an explicit `executablePath` or `channel` option.

await page.waitForSelector(resultsSelector);
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

### Running in Docker
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Puppeteer offers a Docker image that includes Chromium along with the required dependencies and a pre-installed Puppeteer version. The image is available via the [GitHub Container Registry](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/pkgs/container/puppeteer). The latest image is tagged as `latest` and other tags match Puppeteer versions. For example,
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```sh
|
|
||||||
docker pull ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:latest # pulls the latest
|
|
||||||
docker pull ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:16.1.0 # pulls the image that contains Puppeteer v16.1.0
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The image is meant for running the browser in the sandbox mode and therefore, running the image requires the `SYS_ADMIN` capability. For example,
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```sh
|
|
||||||
docker run -i --init --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN --rm ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:latest node -e "`cat docker/test/smoke-test.js`"
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Replace the path to [`smoke-test.js`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/main/docker/test/smoke-test.js) with a path to your script.
|
|
||||||
The script can import or require the `puppeteer` module because it's pre-installed inside the image.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Currently, the image includes the LTS version of Node.js. If you need to build an image based on a different base image, you can use our [`Dockerfile`](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/main/docker/Dockerfile) as the starting point.

### Working with Chrome Extensions
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Puppeteer can be used for testing Chrome Extensions.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
:::caution
|

})();
|
|

```
|
|
||||||
|
|

<!-- [START debugging] -->
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Debugging tips
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Turn off headless mode - sometimes it's useful to see what the browser is
|
|
||||||
displaying. Instead of launching in headless mode, launch a full version of
|
|
||||||
the browser using `headless: false`:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({headless: false});
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Slow it down - the `slowMo` option slows down Puppeteer operations by the
|
|
||||||
specified amount of milliseconds. It's another way to help see what's going on.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
|
|
||||||
headless: false,
|
|
||||||
slowMo: 250, // slow down by 250ms
|
|
||||||
});
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. Capture console output - You can listen for the `console` event.
|
|
||||||
This is also handy when debugging code in `page.evaluate()`:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
page.on('console', msg => console.log('PAGE LOG:', msg.text()));
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
await page.evaluate(() => console.log(`url is ${location.href}`));
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4. Use debugger in application code browser
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There are two execution context: node.js that is running test code, and the browser
|
|
||||||
running application code being tested. This lets you debug code in the
|
|
||||||
application code browser; ie code inside `evaluate()`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Use `{devtools: true}` when launching Puppeteer:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({devtools: true});
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Change default test timeout:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
jest: `jest.setTimeout(100000);`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
jasmine: `jasmine.DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_INTERVAL = 100000;`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
mocha: `this.timeout(100000);` (don't forget to change test to use [function and not '=>'](https://stackoverflow.com/a/23492442))
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Add an evaluate statement with `debugger` inside / add `debugger` to an existing evaluate statement:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
await page.evaluate(() => {
|
|
||||||
debugger;
|
|
||||||
});
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The test will now stop executing in the above evaluate statement, and chromium will stop in debug mode.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
5. Use debugger in node.js
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will let you debug test code. For example, you can step over `await page.click()` in the node.js script and see the click happen in the application code browser.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note that you won't be able to run `await page.click()` in
|
|
||||||
DevTools console due to this [Chromium bug](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=833928). So if
|
|
||||||
you want to try something out, you have to add it to your test file.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Add `debugger;` to your test, eg:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```ts
|
|
||||||
debugger;
|
|
||||||
await page.click('a[target=_blank]');
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Set `headless` to `false`
|
|
||||||
- Run `node --inspect-brk`, eg `node --inspect-brk node_modules/.bin/jest tests`
|
|
||||||
- In Chrome open `chrome://inspect/#devices` and click `inspect`
|
|
||||||
- In the newly opened test browser, type `F8` to resume test execution
|
|
||||||
- Now your `debugger` will be hit and you can debug in the test browser
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
6. Enable verbose logging - internal DevTools protocol traffic
|
|
||||||
will be logged via the [`debug`](https://github.com/visionmedia/debug) module under the `puppeteer` namespace.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Basic verbose logging
|
|
||||||
env DEBUG="puppeteer:*" node script.js
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Protocol traffic can be rather noisy. This example filters out all Network domain messages
|
|
||||||
env DEBUG="puppeteer:*" env DEBUG_COLORS=true node script.js 2>&1 | grep -v '"Network'
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
7. Debug your Puppeteer (node) code easily, using [ndb](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/ndb)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- `npm install -g ndb` (or even better, use [npx](https://github.com/zkat/npx)!)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- add a `debugger` to your Puppeteer (node) code
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- add `ndb` (or `npx ndb`) before your test command. For example:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`ndb jest` or `ndb mocha` (or `npx ndb jest` / `npx ndb mocha`)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- debug your test inside chromium like a boss!
