Downgrade webdriverio v9 to v8 #817
Conversation

I'd rather have us fix the packages to keep the new major version, because the root cause of the incompatibility is an improvement in version 8.5 how webdriverio downloads browsers, see https://webdriver.io/blog/2023/07/31/driver-management/
Version 9 removes the dependency on the services, see https://webdriver.io/blog/2024/08/15/webdriverio-v9-release#removal-of-devtools-and-wdiodevtools-service-packages
I'm not sure what steps need to be done, I just had a glance at the docs after some googling and watching half of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jMX4NYPPVk
removing the wdio-chromedriver-service made npm update/npm install work again, but I haven't tested if the screenshotting still works

We upgraded webdriverio from v8 to v9 here: #806 - this has lead to dependency clashes (dependencies not resolvable during `npm install`) - taking screenshots stopped working after version >8.41

same timeout failure when trying to do screenshots with the most recent patch "webdriverio": "^9.5.3". For now it seems reasonable to stay on v8.41. |
