#10 - Open Browser without Incognito Mode (Normal Mode) with Playwright

[@kushalparikh3608]

Playwright doesn’t support maximising browser window in latest version using “- start-maximized”. Sir Can you pls check & tell is there any alternative?

Hi Naveen, if I use the "./session" argument within the "launchPersistentContext()", I get this error: "Error: browserType.launchPersistentContext: Target page, context or browser has been closed". Is there a reason for this pls?

Hi Naveen thanx, I have a question here If I use await the code is working but If I apply other approach using then it is not working please help waiting for ur reply :) await page.locator("//div[@class='example']/h3").textContent(); //works page.locator("//div[@class='example']/h3").textContent().then((data)=>{ console.log("value is ="+data); });

[@naveenautomationlabs]

with .then(), the callback function is executed asynchronously when the promise is resolved, and there might be a timing issue where the text content is not yet available when the callback function is executed. So avoid using chaining with then(). Always use await for the right sychronization.

@@naveenautomationlabs thanks for your response Actually I put await before it and it worked ,the reason I used then is I was trying to relate few things related to promise

[@naveenautomationlabs]

Yes use await and use catch also in order to capture the error if element is not found.
