Version 1.41.2 Details

Playwright-core version 1.41.2 represents the latest iteration in Microsoft's browser automation library, released on February 1st, 2024. Building upon the foundation of version 1.41.1, published on January 19th, 2024, this update offers refinements and potential bug fixes, ensuring a more robust and reliable experience for developers utilizing Playwright's high-level API to automate web browsers. While both versions maintain the same core functionality, license (Apache-2.0), and maintainer (Microsoft Corporation), subtle changes often enhance performance or address specific edge cases exposed in the previous release.

A key difference lies in the unpackedSize within the dist object, where version 1.41.2 has a slightly smaller footprint (7186002 bytes) compared to version 1.41.1 (7186440 bytes). Though seemingly minor, this reduction could indicate optimizations in code or asset delivery. Developers should consider upgrading to 1.41.2 to benefit from these improvements and any implicit bug fixes.

For developers deeply invested in automated web testing, scraping, or browser-driven applications, staying current with Playwright-core’s latest releases is crucial. Even without explicit changelogs for point releases like this, the potential for enhanced stability and performance makes version 1.41.2 the preferred choice. Always review Playwright's official documentation and release notes for a comprehensive understanding of changes and any necessary migration steps.
