Add seeCurrentPathEquals method to ignore query strings#5435
Conversation
Adds new assertion method to check URL path equality while ignoring
query parameters and URL fragments.
- I.seeCurrentPathEquals('/info') passes for '/info?user=1', '/info#section'
- I.seeCurrentPathEquals('/') passes for '/', '/?user=ok', '/#top'
Implemented in Playwright, Puppeteer, and WebDriver helpers using native
URL class for pathname extraction.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Can we use a similar function for Playwright and Puppeteer, without custom logic at the end?
