Problem with Locating HTML Element in Electron App Launched via .exe using Playwright

[sophieminasyan]

I'm facing an issue while testing an Electron application using Playwright. Specifically, when launching the Electron application via its .exe executable file, the page.locator() method fails to locate an HTML element (e.g., div#root) on the page after opening the executable.

const executablePath = "path/to/executable.exe";
test.describe('Theia Application Testing', () => {
    test('Do Test, async () => {
        const electronApp = await _electron.launch({ executablePath, args: ['-c'] });
        const window = await electronApp.firstWindow();
        const root = window.locator("div#root");

        await expect(root).toBeVisible();
    });
});

Is it possible to test Theia Application by executable file?
