[Feature]: Get browser version detail with cli command

Open amrita-shrestha opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Version

1.49.0

Steps to reproduce

I am trying to find the browser version (e.g., Chromium) that corresponds to the latest version of Playwright, but I cannot find any command that provides this information. I have tried using pnpm show playwright-chromium version, which returns 1.49.0, but this doesn't give the browser version bundled with Playwright itself.

Is there a documented way to retrieve the browser version for a specific Playwright version? Or is there currently no command available to fetch this information?

pnpm show playwright-chromium version
1.49.0

Expected behavior

Browser versions:
- Chromium 131.0.6778.33
Playwright version: 1.49.0

Actual behavior

I cannot find a way to retrieve the browser version bundled with the Playwright version.

Additional context

No response

Environment

OS: LINUX 22.04.03

@amrita-shrestha There is no CLI command for this. You can launch the browser though, take a look at our helper.
