Good: 105.0.1329.1 Bad: 105.0.1336.2

https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/runs/7638739279?check_suite_focus=true

Repro:

1. npm init -y
2. npm install @playwright/test
3. create the script
4. node test.js

script:

const { chromium } = require('@playwright/test');

(async () => {
  const browser = await chromium.launch({
    channel: 'msedge-dev',
    // for custom executable:
    // executablePath: 'foobar.exe'
  });
  // Create pages, interact with UI elements, assert values
  const page = await browser.newPage();
  await page.goto("https://github.com");
  await browser.close();
})();

Expected: Script works, browsers started, CDP session gets established. Actual: Script does not work, browser starts but terminates instantly, CDP session does not get established, pipe closes.

Repro without Playwright

msedge.exe --enable-logging --v=1 --screenshot --headless
