[Question]: Playwright with selenium grid and proxy

See original GitHub issue

Hi, I’m currently using Selenium chromedriver + Xunit to run automated frontend tests in C#. Test runs (Xunit invocations) are managed by web application and Selenium is running on Selenium Grid 4. I wanted to try out Playwright but I’ve encountered two problems:

Why SELENIUM_REMOTE_URL has to be provided by environment URL and it can’t be injected from code? In case I want to control if the tests should be run locally/remotely I have to change environmental variable and it looks hacky.
Is there a way to provide proxy for selenium grid other than setting http_proxy variable? My app runs in container and I don’t want to pass the whole network traffic through proxy.

I’ve asked this question in main Playwright repo but I guess this is a better place.

Can’t you just do this? You already pass some environment variables when creating Node.js process, how about passing more?
