Wait for URL (waitForURL) ​

Waits until the tab URL matches Value. The worker passes Value to Playwright as a string: that is a glob (**/web/ru), not a /pattern/flags record. A /…/ string is not compiled to a regular expression. No Target. Source must be INLINE only.

Step model ​

Target/Value facts match the source-of-truth catalog and Autotest step.

Steps ​

1. Add a waitForURL step.
2. Leave Target empty.
3. Put a Playwright glob (**/web/ru) or an exact URL in Value. Write the pattern as the address appears in the browser: a trailing slash (**/web/ru/ when the href has none) will not match.
4. Source must be INLINE.
5. Save.

The step is stored on the autotest. Next - neighbouring steps or autotest run creation.

  "timeout_ms": 20000
}

Common mistakes ​

• toHaveURL is an assertion; waitForURL waits before later steps.
• Do not use TEST_ACCOUNT.
• Do not put /pattern/flags in Value: for waitForURL that is a glob. Use a regular expression on toHaveURL.
• Breakdown: How to author autotest steps without false failures.
