Running Chrome Device Emulation w/ Tablets not able to perform left clicks anymore

[sam-yh]

What is your Scenario?

Using Chrome device emulation with a "tablet device" (iPad, Kindle), suddenly left clicks are not performed anymore, instead it seems they are "turned into" right clicks

What is the Current behavior?

When using Chrome browser emulation with a tablet device, left click commands behave like right click commands

What is the Expected behavior?

Left clicks should be executed as left clicks, always, including when running with Chrome's device emulation mode for tablets.

What is the public URL of the test page? (attach your complete example)

https://testcafe.io/

What is your TestCafe test code?

import { Selector } from 'testcafe'

fixture`Repro`.page`${'https://testcafe.io/'}`
test('Repro', async (t) => {
  await t.click(Selector('.burger')).wait(50000)
})

Run this with e.g.: testcafe chrome:emulation:device=iPad path/to/file.js

Your complete configuration file

module.exports = { 
    disableMultipleWindows: true,

I assume this is probably not a Testcafe bug. But posting this just for the off-chance there is some connection to the Testcafe codebase or the case that maybe someone else runs into this issue and can point out the actual causes.

Hello @sam-yh,

I can't reproduce the issue on my machine (Chrome 122.0.6261.69 / Ubuntu 22.04 / nodeJS 20.11.1) Maybe you can specify the details that can help us reproduce the problematic behavior.

Thanks for your reply! I found out that it depends on this configuration file option being set to true As soon as I comment this option out, the issue is not reproducible anymore. Can you please retry with "disableMultipleWindows": true in your .testcaferc.js? Updating my post above.
