To begin, follow Steps 1 to 2 from the Chapter of Basic Test on Puppeteer which are as follows −
Step 1 − Create a new file within the directory where the node_modules folder is created (location where the Puppeteer and Puppeteer core have been installed).
The details on Puppeteer installation is discussed in the Chapter of Puppeteer Installation.
Right-click on the folder where the node_modules folder is created, then click on the New file button.
Step 2 − Enter a filename, say testcase1.js.
Step 3 − Add the below code within the testcase1.js file created.
//adding Puppeteer library const pt = require(''puppeteer''); pt.launch().then(async browser => { //browser new page const p = await browser.newPage(); //set viewpoint of browser page await p.setViewport({ width: 1000, height: 500 }) //launch URL await p.goto(''https://www.tutorialspoint.com/questions/index.php'') //obtain page title console.log("Page title: " + await p.title()) //obtain URL console.log("Url: " + await p.url()) //browser close await browser.close() })
Step 4 − Execute the code with the command given below −
node <filename>
So in our example, we shall run the following command −
node testcase1.js
After the command has been successfully executed, the page title – The Best Technical Questions and Answers gets printed in the console. Also, the URL – www.tutorialspoint.com/questions/index.php gets printed in the console. The execution has happened in the headless mode.
