[BUG] WebKit / Chromium setting a cookie with expiration does not work

[rado-o]

Context:

• Playwright Version: 1.19.0
• Browser: WebKit
• CI/CD: GitLab (Docker image: playwright:focal)
• Failed pipeline run

Code Snippet
Sample test

Describe the bug
Running the sample test on GitLab CI/CD (Docker) fails only in WebKit - not reproducible for Firefox/Chrome.
The issue is not reproducible when running the test in WebKit locally (Windows 10, Node.js : v16.13.2)

@rado-o Most likely, something went wrong in WebKit when launching network process. That might happen for a lot of reasons. Does this reproduce consistently? If it does, try running with DEBUG=pw:browser* environment variable and post logs here - perhaps we'll get some insights?

Hi @dgozman,

yes, the error is thrown in each test executed in WebKit (Gitlab CI/CD) when the cookies are being set up directly (context.addCookies(cookies)). In the shared project I provided a dummy test executed on a public test website.

I added the environment variable to the script: pipeline run

Very helpful repro @rado-o, thank you! Was able to repro, it's caused by the expiration property. As a workaround you could change it to -1 until its getting fixed.

Note:

• WebKit with expiration property -> crash
• Chromium see here: https://crbug.com/1300178
