===================== | ||
|
||
|
||
.. default-role:: code | ||
|
||
|
||
Browser_ is a web testing library for `Robot Framework`_ that utilizes | ||
the Playwright_ tool internally. Browser library 5.0.0 is a new release with | ||
masking password username and password in the New Context keyword and | ||
Wait For Alert keyword to get alert text enhancements. All issues targeted | ||
for Browser library v5.0.0 can be found from the `issue tracker`_. | ||
If you have pip_ installed, just run | ||
:: | ||
pip install --upgrade robotframework-browser | ||
rfbrowser init | ||
to install the latest available release or use | ||
:: | ||
pip install robotframework-browser==5.0.0 | ||
rfbrowser init | ||
to install exactly this version. Alternatively you can download the source | ||
distribution from PyPI_ and install it manually. | ||
Browser library 5.0.0 was released on Wednesday May 19, 2021. Browser supports | ||
Python **>=3.7**, and Robot Framework **>=3.2**. | ||

Most important enhancements | ||
=========================== | ||
|
||
New Context >> httpCredentials Logs password clearly to log.html (`#946`_) | ||
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
New Context httpCredentials argument used to leak username and password to output | ||
files. Also it is possible to provide username and password with % abd $ prefix | ||
which will allows to keyword to discover the variable values internally. This will | ||
prevent leaking the secrets in the Robot Framework output files, but if Playwright | ||
debug log is enabled, secrets are written to debug log as plain text. | ||
|
||
Because keyword now logs a warning if secrets are inputted as plain text and | ||
therefore this change is backwards indomitable. | ||
|
||
Assert future dialogs (`#440`_) | ||
------------------------------- | ||
There is a new keyword: Wait For Alert, which must be used with Promise To keyword. | ||
But new keyword returns the text from alert and offers possibility to assert the | ||
text in the alert. | ||
|
||
