@yury-s : Could you please help me here

Please provide a complete example which we could use to reproduce the issue locally.

I am sharing the below code, Could please check if the below code snippet can give you a better idea of the scenario which i am trying. the application URL has restricted access, hence could not share the URL.

String extensionDirPath = PathToExtension List<String> args = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList( "--disable-extensions-except=" + extensionDirPath, "--load-extension=" + extensionDirPath, "--use-fake-ui-for-media-stream", "--use-fake-device-for-media-stream" )); BrowserType browserType = playwright.chromium(); context = browserType.launchPersistentContext(tempUserDataDir, new BrowserType.LaunchPersistentContextOptions() .setHeadless(false) .setArgs(args) Page page = context.newPage(); Page.navigate("application URL"); page.click("Xpath to button"); //This page opens up new tab

context.pages() --> Returns 1 , but expecting 2 as new tab is opened by click action which. If we wait for 5-10 seconds , we are seeing the value as 2.

I tried using below

page=context().waitForPage(() -> { page.locator('element locator').isVisible(); });

It has something to do with the extension. I cannot reproduce it with regular web pages. We need complete reproduction example.
