* feat: use CDP's auto-attach mechanism
In this PR, we refactor Puppeteer to make use of the CDP's auto-attach mechanism. This allows the backend to pause
new targets and give Puppeteer a chance to configure them properly. This fixes the flakiness related to dealing with
OOPIFs and should fix some other issues related to the network interception and navigations. If those are not fixed completely by this PR, the PR serves a solid base for fixing them.
Closes https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/issues/8507, https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/issues/7990
Unlocks https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/issues/3667
BREAKING CHANGE: With Chromium, Puppeteer will now attach to page/iframe targets immediately to allow reliable configuration of targets.
This patch fixes page.#scrollIntoViewIfNeeded, so that it works with devtools protocol.
Now it blocks the main thread and waits until the scrolling action finishes in Chrome.
Fallbacks to the old implementation if `DOM.scrollIntoViewIfNeeded` is not supported for Firefox.
Issues: #8627, #1805
This PR greatly improves the types within Puppeteer:
- **Almost everything** is auto-deduced.
- Parameters don't need to be specified in the function. They are deduced from the spread.
- Return types don't need to be specified. They are deduced from the function. (More on this below)
- Selections based on tag names correctly deduce element type, similar to TypeScript's mechanism for `getElementByTagName`.
- [**BREAKING CHANGE**] We've removed the ability to declare return types in type arguments for the following reasons:
1. Setting them will indubitably break auto-deduction.
2. You can just use `as ...` in TypeScript to coerce the correct type (given it makes sense).
- [**BREAKING CHANGE**] `waitFor` is officially gone.
To migrate to these changes, there are only four things you may need to change:
- If you set a return type using the `ReturnType` type parameter, remove it and use `as ...` and `HandleFor` (if necessary).
⛔ `evaluate<ReturnType>(a: number, b: number) => {...}, a, b)`
✅ `(await evaluate(a, b) => {...}, a, b)) as ReturnType`
⛔ `evaluateHandle<ReturnType>(a: number, b: number) => {...}, a, b)`
✅ `(await evaluateHandle(a, b) => {...}, a, b)) as HandleFor<ReturnType>`
- If you set any type parameters in the *parameters* of an evaluation function, remove them.
⛔ `evaluate(a: number, b: number) => {...}, a, b)`
✅ `evaluate(a, b) => {...}, a, b)`
- If you set any type parameters in the method's declaration, remove them.
⛔ `evaluate<(a: number, b: number) => void>((a, b) => {...}, a, b)`
✅ `evaluate(a, b) => {...}, a, b)`
* The testing tsconfig.json inherits from the base TS config.
* A lot of type assertions have been inserted...a lot.
* All testing utilities have migrated to TS.
* text-diff is being replaced with diff for TS compatibility.
* ProtocolError has been added to PuppeteerErrors and PuppeteerErrors is no longer a record (it's been frozen).
* Fixes a small bug where null was an allowable media type in emulation (should be undefined).
