Change chromedriver network conditions

[gbkwiatt]

I know that chromedriver supports changing network conditions ( offline e.g.)
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromedriver/issues/detail?id=984

Is there anyway, to do it from nightwach-api ? I mean is there a way to communicate with chrome driver dynamically during the test ?

Hi. I'm successfuly using some Chrome specific features in my Nightwatch tests using Puppeteer (https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer). All you need to do is to allow Nightwatch to create the browser instance for you, then connect Puppeteer to this instance (https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/v8.0.0/docs/api.md#puppeteerconnectoptions) and use Puppeteer API as you wish (https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/v8.0.0/docs/api.md#puppeteernetworkconditions)
