[FEATURE] Cookies not supported with Electron
See original GitHub issueI’m using Playwright to run end-to-end tests for an Electron app. I have a use case for cookies, but it appears none of the cookies commands exist on the BrowserContext with Electron.
I assumed they would have the same API, but upon trying to get cookies:
const context = await app.context()
await context.cookies()
I get this error:
browserContext.cookies: Protocol error (Storage.getCookies): Browser context management is not supported.
Is cookies not supported for Electron + Playwright, or is there a workaround?

@taniarascia Indeed, some feature are not working with Electron, that’s why it is still experimental 😄 I don’t think there is an easy workaround today.
upvote for electron support!
