feat: set custom userAgent #1398

Open fuhlig opened 2 years ago

fuhlig commented 2 years ago

Motivation:

emulate userAgent if page parses UA
not polute analytics data by using custom userAgent that can be excluded from analytics
Playwright does not allow setting userAgent in onReady script via page.setUserAgent() like puppeteer does and needs to be set in browser context https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/697

Features:

set userAgent via scenario.userAgent or config.userAgent
for both Puppeteer & Playwright

Testing:

npm run ua-test -- --engine="puppeteer" --browser="chromium"
npm run ua-test -- --engine="puppeteer" --browser="firefox"

npm run ua-test -- --engine="playwright" --browser="chromium"
npm run ua-test -- --engine="playwright" --browser="firefox"
npm run ua-test -- --engine="playwright" --browser="webkit"

Examples

Playwright

Puppeteer
