Unable to understand why my browser closes before the page is fully loaded even when using waitForNavigation

Grafana k6 k6-browser
1

This is the sample code picked up from the K6 docs itself. I have added few lines

import { browser } from ‘k6/experimental/browser’;
import { check } from ‘k6’;

export const options = {
scenarios: {
ui: {
executor: ‘shared-iterations’,
options: {
browser: {
type: ‘chromium’,
},
},
},
},
thresholds: {
checks: [“rate==1.0”]
}
}

export default async function () {
const page = browser.newPage();
try {
await page.goto(‘My messages’);
page.locator(‘input[name=“login”]’).type(‘admin’);
page.locator(‘input[name=“password”]’).type(‘123’);
const submitButton = page.locator(‘input[type=“submit”]’);
await Promise.all([page.waitForNavigation(), submitButton.click()]);
check(page, {
‘header’: p => p.locator(‘h2’).textContent() == ‘Welcome, admin!’,
});
await page.locator(submitButton).click()
check(page, {
‘header1’: p => p.locator(‘h2’).textContent() == ‘Unauthorized’,
});
await page.waitForTimeout(5000);

} finally {
page.close();
}
}

Now this only executes the first check but does not click on the logout button and executes 2nd check. Can someone explain why?

The parameter of page.locator() function should be a string, but submitButton is a Locator object from the previous page.locator() call.

That is because both the page have same button. we can change the code to something like this but it will still not execute the lines after 1st check.

try {
await page.goto(‘My messages’);

page.locator('input[name="login"]').type('admin');
page.locator('input[name="password"]').type('123');

const submitButton = page.locator('input[type="submit"]');

await Promise.all([page.waitForNavigation(), submitButton.click()]);

check(page, {
  'header': p => p.locator('h2').textContent() == 'Welcome, admin!',
});

const logoutbuttonlocator = page.locator("//input[@value='Logout']");

await page.locator(logoutbuttonlocator).click()

check(page, {
    'header1': p => p.locator('h2').textContent() == 'Unauthorized',
  });

  await page.waitForTimeout(5000);

} finally {
page.close();
}

@akhilsr20
Because logoutbuttonlocator is a Locator object again and not a string, so

Please replace the line:

await page.locator(logoutbuttonlocator).click()

with:

await logoutbuttonlocator.click()
