test: add chrome for testing example
Situation
Cypress introduced support for Google Chrome for Testing in [email protected].
Google restricted the use of the --load-extension flag in Chrome version 137 (May 2025) and above and continues to allow its use in Chrome for Testing. See also [email protected] changelog.
This repo does not currently describe using Chrome for Testing.
GitHub runner images such as ubuntu-24.04 do not include Chrome for Testing. https://github.com/browser-actions/setup-chrome does however provides a JavaScript action to install Chrome for Testing in GitHub runners.
