To resolve issues with the browser closing during a cleanup function in an automated UI test using @playwright/test, follow these steps:
Ensure your cleanup function is properly configured, releasing resources and closing open connections or processes. Use a try-catch block to catch errors or exceptions:
import { test } from '@playwright/test';
test.afterEach(async ({ page }) => {
try {
// Your cleanup code here
} catch (error) {
console.error('Cleanup error:', error);
}
});
If your test takes too long, it may trigger a timeout, causing the browser to close. Increase the timeout value or optimize your test code:
import { test } from '@playwright/test';
test.setTimeout(60000); // Set the timeout to 60 seconds
test('Long running test', async ({ page }) => {
await page.goto('https://ray.run');
// Your test code here
});
Investigate known issues with the specific browser you're using. Consider switching browsers or updating to a newer version.
Utilize @playwright/test's built-in debugging features. Run tests in debug mode and step through actions while viewing logs and diagnostic information:
import { test } from '@playwright/test';
test('Debug test', async ({ page }) => {
await page.goto('https://ray.run');
// Your test code here
}).debug();
By following these steps, you can effectively troubleshoot and resolve issues with the browser closing unexpectedly during a cleanup function in your automated UI tests.
