mxschmitt/playwright-go v0.6201.1

on GitHub

Go-only patch release on top of the v1.62.1 driver. The bundled driver version is unchanged, so no reinstall is needed when upgrading from v0.6201.0.

Four any-typed parameters accepted argument types the generated docs promised but the code did not handle, and each failed by panicking rather than reporting an error. All four now behave as documented.

Fixes

• Page.ExpectRequest / Page.ExpectResponse accept func(Request) bool / func(Response) bool predicates again, so waits can filter on Method(), Status(), headers or post data instead of the URL alone (#627).
• ToHaveText, ToContainText and ToHaveClass accept mixed lists of strings and regexps ([]any{"alpha", regexp.MustCompile("bet.")}), matching upstream's Array<string|RegExp>. Homogeneous []string / []*regexp.Regexp are unaffected.
• ExpectEvent / WaitForEvent reject the wait with a descriptive error when the predicate is unusable — not a function, wrong argument type, wrong return type, or panicking — instead of crashing the process from the library's own dispatch goroutine. A typed-nil predicate now means "no predicate".
• The GetBy* family on Page, Frame, Locator and FrameLocator, GetByRole's Name/Description options, and the HasText/HasNotText locator options report an invalid argument type through Locator.Err() instead of panicking.

Internal

• Driver protocol messages are decoded with encoding/json rather than the vendored Go 1.6 JSON fork in go-jose/v3 — about 20% faster on large frames at the same allocation count. github.com/go-jose/go-jose/v3 and golang.org/x/crypto leave the module graph (investigated for #631).
