Description

Hi Garris,

I am trying to explore if BackstopJS can be used to invoke execution on new microsoft Edge Chromium browser as underlying technology is puppteer

http://www.hardkoded.com/blog/automating-microsoft-edge-puppteer-sharp

i tried to provide exutablePath of Edge Chromium but it didn't work out. Can you suggest if it is possible and if yes any other way to do it,

"engineOptions": {
"args": ["--no-sandbox"],
"executablePath" : "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\new_msedge.exe"
},

Research direction

The issue names no repository files, tests, or entry points to inspect. Start by locating BackstopJS's Puppeteer engine configuration and existing browser-launch tests, then determine whether Microsoft Edge Chromium can be invoked through the requested executablePath; done means a supported configuration or a documented limitation, backed by a reproducible test.
