What is your Scenario?

We run our tests on gitlabci using the official docker image testcafe/testcafe:1.16.0 and all is fine. Tests are executed behind the proxy. We tried to switch to a more fresh version 1.18.3 (changed only docker tag) but this resulted in the pipeline failure, tests are not executed and we see the next error:

ERROR Cannot establish one or more browser connections.
1 of 1 browser connections have not been established:
- chromium --start-maximized --incognito
Hints:
- Increase the value of the "browserInitTimeout" option if it is too low (currently: 2 minutes for local browsers and 6 minutes for remote browsers). This option determines how long TestCafe waits for browsers to be ready.
- The error can also be caused by network issues or remote device failure. Make sure that your network connection is stable and you can reach the remote device.```
