 - `html` <[string]> HTML markup to assign to the page.
-- `options` <[Object]> Navigation parameters which might have the following properties:
-  - `timeout` <[number]> Maximum navigation time in milliseconds, defaults to 30 seconds, pass `0` to disable timeout.
-  - `waitUntil` <[string]|[Array]<[string]>> When to consider setting content complete, defaults to `load`. Given an array of event strings, setting content is considered to be successful after all events have been fired. Events can be either:
-    - `load` - consider setting content to be finished when the `load` event is fired.
-    - `domcontentloaded` - consider setting content to be finished when the `DOMContentLoaded` event is fired.
-    - `networkidle0` - consider setting content to be finished when there are no more than 0 network connections for at least `500` ms.
-    - `networkidle2` - consider setting content to be finished when there are no more than 2 network connections for at least `500` ms.
-- returns: <[Promise]> Promise which resolves when content is set and all events are triggered.
