Use a custom path pattern for screenshots of failed tests
The pathPatternOnFailsscreenshot option allows TestCafe users to define a separate set of naming rules for screenshots taken on test failure. You can store these screenshots in a different folder, or add a common, recognizable element to their filenames. You can use this option on its own, or in conjunction with the pathPattern property.
(Experimental) Run multi-window tests with native automation
TestCafe v2.5.0 was the first version of TestCafe to include native automation --- the capability to automate Chromium-based browsers with the native Chrome Debugging Protocol. This approach offers greater test stability and speed, but has a fair share of limitations. One of them is its incompatibility with multi-window tests.
TestCafe v3.5.0 offers an experimental solution for this issue --- the --experimental-multiple-windows CLI flag. If you enable this flag, you can run multi-window tests with the native automation engine.
The --experimental-multiple-windows mode does not support tests that include the following:
