Playwright execution at a standstill
I am encountering a weird problem the last few days with my Playwright/Typescript project. When I execute my tests in VS Code (cmd line or GUI) it is taking upwards of 3-4 mins before the tests begin to execute. Once the tests trigger they are running at the normal speed and passing, but there is a serious lag before they begin triggering.
Even running the command "npx playwright/test --version" is taking 2 mins to come back with the version number.
Contrast this with my Python/API/Pytest project in VS Code that is running fast and normal.
This is new as of a cpl days ago and I have no idea where to even begin to diagnose it. FWIW I am running Playwright 1.40.1 if that matters.
This thread is trying to answer question "What could be causing the significant delay before Playwright tests execute?"
Yep. The problem is the DeBug window doesnt even open until more than 1 minute after triggering, and then onec its open it doesnt trigger the browser for another 2 mins or so. Again, once the tests start it runs normal speed. So running in DeBug mode doesn't really tell me anything unfortunately
