Playwright-core, a powerful tool for web browser automation, has received a minor update with the release of version 1.41.1 following closely after version 1.41.0. While both versions share the same core functionality, description, and licensing under Apache-2.0, there are subtle differences to note for developers. Both packages contain 295 files, indicating a comprehensive suite of features.
Specifically, version 1.41.1, released on January 19, 2024, features a slightly larger unpacked size of 7,186,440 bytes compared to version 1.41.0's 7,186,253 bytes, released on January 16, 2024. This slight increase in size suggests the introduction of new assets, potentially bug fixes, or minor enhancements that improve the overall performance and stability of the library. While seemingly small, unpackedSize differences can sometimes reflect important changes that may affect some automation scripts.
Playwright-core provides developers with a robust and easy-to-use API for automating web browsers. Both versions empower users to write end-to-end tests, automate repetitive tasks, and extract data from web pages with precision. Developers should consider upgrading to the latest version to benefit from the latest improvements and fixes. When upgrading between minor releases, it is also good to test your web browser automation scripts, in order to check whether the automation scripts are still stable.
