#testing #Playwright

Highlights:
- browserContext.clearCookies() can now be used to delete cookies by filter
- a new option in retain-on-first-failure tracing
- it is now possible to get information about tags during the testInfo.tags test
- new locator.contentFrame() method that converts Locator to FrameLocator and back to frameLocator.owner()
- small improvements in the UI mode

Also, this new version of Playwright broke my #Github actions last night with the error Error: Playwright Test did not expect test.describe() to be called here. ... Error: No tests found. 😡

I solved it by updating package.json and package-lock.json, but somehow I didn't like doing it with my hands. Will this happen with every update? I mean, updating packages/configurations and all that. 🤔

I feel like I chose the wrong career

Does anyone else feel Iike they chose the wrong career path?

I regret going into testing. From what I’ve seen, testing is the worst role in tech.

It’s not respected by a lot of companies. Testers are the first to go in any organization. Less and less companies are hiring QA’s these days. The list goes on and on.

Thjs does not seem like a stable profession and if I have a mortgage on a house how tf am I going to pay the bills as a QA when it’s such an unstable career.

What other fields can I transition into?

#Microsoft has left one of #Bing internal development servers - with code, scripts, keys, passwords and more - publicly visible. The funny thing is that after being informed of this screwup, it took Microsoft a month to react and hide this server. Who had access to it, other than the researchers who discovered it, is unknown. 🙃

“We discovered that the threat actor had accessed data related to all users of Dropbox Sign, such as emails and user names, in addition to general account settings,” Dropbox said Wednesday in a regulatory filing. “For subsets of users, the threat actor also accessed phone numbers, hashed passwords, and certain authentication information such as API keys, OAuth tokens, and multi-factor authentication.”
