deprecated method

Hi there, I am wondering what is the alternative method for WaitForNavigationAsync since on playwright official documentation it's mentioned DEPRECATED so how soon it will be removed.

This thread is trying to answer question "What is the alternative method for WaitForNavigationAsync in Playwright since it's deprecated?"

The documentation says that WaitForURLAsync() is the recommended alternative. Does that not cover your use-case? If it doesn't, then I would look for a different approach as opposed to a 1-to-1 replacement.

Speaking from experience, I replaced waitForNavigation (node.js equivalent) with web-first assertions, and I've found them to be much better than waitForURL or waitForNavigation ever were. So much more resilient in my tests.

Good luck! Cheers ๐Ÿป
