Here is a reported issue
@kobenguyent I patched my Playwright.js by the fix and it works well, no delay occurs when the test finishes.
But there is a regression 🐛 - I.waitForText() doesn't wait for waitForTimeout if the string can't be found. It waits for a short time only.
Could you reopen it?
test:
Feature("My");
Scenario("test something", ({ I }) => {
I.amOnPage("https://codecept.io/");
I.waitForText("CodeceptJS ‐ superchargedx");
});
Before the fix - the method waits for 30 secs ✔️
