Testcafe hangs on navigating to another page in electron

[psaikido]

What is your Test Scenario?

An electron app. A page has an edit button which takes the user to a page to edit the values.

What is the Current behavior?

The test navigates to another page but thereafter just hangs.

What is the Expected behavior?

Should be able to test the new page.

What is your web application and your TestCafe test code?

https://bitbucket.org/psaikido/lyftrak/
https://bitbucket.org/psaikido/lyftrak/src/testcafe/testcafe/02-edit.js

Your complete test code (or attach your test files):

Your complete configuration file (if any):

{
    "mainWindowUrl": "./src/journalEntry.html",
    "appPath": "./"
}

Your complete test report:

There is no report because it's just hanging.

Screenshots:

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install lyftrak from bitbucket
2. Execute npm test from its root dir on linux
3. See the error...

Your Environment details:

• testcafe version:
  v1.8.1

• node.js version:
  v13.5.0

• command-line arguments:

• browser name and version:
  chrome Version 79.0.3945.117 (Official Build) (64-bit)

• platform and version:
  linux mint 19.3

• other:
  I wonder if the bug is to do with an interaction with npm package testcafe-browser-provider-electron.

Thank you for your report. I was able to reproduce the issue. Likely it is an incompatibility between TestCafe and Electron, but we need some time for debugging.

That's brilliant someone's on it! I didn't expect a reply tbh :)
