BaseURL

When using GotoAsync(string, PageGotoOptions?), RouteAsync(string, Action<IRoute>, PageRouteOptions?), WaitForURLAsync(string, PageWaitForURLOptions?), RunAndWaitForRequestAsync(Func<Task>, string, PageRunAndWaitForRequestOptions?), or RunAndWaitForResponseAsync(Func<Task>, string, PageRunAndWaitForResponseOptions?) it takes the base URL in consideration by using the URL() constructor for building the corresponding URL. Unset by default. Examples:

  • baseURL: http://localhost:3000 and navigating to /bar.html results in http://localhost:3000/bar.html
  • baseURL: http://localhost:3000/foo/ and navigating to ./bar.html results in http://localhost:3000/foo/bar.html
  • baseURL: http://localhost:3000/foo (without trailing slash) and navigating to ./bar.html results in http://localhost:3000/bar.html

Property Value

ViewportSize

Remarks

The ViewportSize.NoViewport value opts out from the default presets, makes viewport depend on the host window size defined by the operating system. It makes the execution of the tests non-deterministic.
