…les for REST interaction Serenity/JS Playwright Test adapter will now use the `proxy` property defined in Playwright Test config to override any proxy-related environment variables when instantiating the ability to CallAnApi. This will allow for consistent behaviour between the browser and the HTTP client. Related tickets: #1949

What's the problem you're trying to solve?
Serenity/JS REST relies on Axios, which requires some effort to get it to work behind corporate proxies.
It would be great if the ability to
CallAnApicould automatically apply required proxy settings.How would you like to solve it?
Serenity/JS could use the general approach described in my article, but instead of the tunnel that hasn't been maintained since September 2018, relied on proxy-agents module.
Are there any alternatives?
The alternative is for the developers to configure proxy handling manually when setting up the ability to
CallAnApi, but Serenity/JS could provide a better developer experience.How can we make it happen?
