Element Interaction Issues with TestCafe RC1 3.7.0 and Chrome 130

[RafaelBeltranClip]

What is your Scenario?

I have seen multiple tickets related to errors caused by the latest stable version of Chrome (130), which I am also experiencing with TestCafe 3.6.2. In response, I upgraded to TestCafe RC1 3.7.0, which is supposed to address these issues.

However, it appears that Google Chrome is unable to interact with elements—specifically, it cannot type into or click on any elements. In contrast, switching to Firefox allows the tests to run without any issues.

Previously, everything was functioning correctly with TestCafe 3.6.2 and the earlier version of Chrome.

Note:
The selectors may change depending on the language used in your machine.

What is the Current behavior?

Chrome is unable to interact with elements

What is the Expected behavior?

I should be able to interact with elements.

What is the public URL of the test page? (attach your complete example)

What is your TestCafe test code?

import { Selector } from 'testcafe';


fixture `Bug Report: Form Submission Issue`
    .page `https://www.google.com/`; 

test('Search anything test', async t => {

    // Example selectors
    const searchInput = Selector('textarea[title="Buscar"]');
    const firstRecommendation = Selector('ul li').nth(0);

    await t
        .typeText(searchInput, 'find anything')
        .click(firstRecommendation);
});

I am facing the same problem when running my tests locally. Nothing happens when clicking on checkboxes, buttons, etc.

• Chrome 130
• TestCafe 3.7.0-rc.1
• MacOS Sonoma 14.6.1

Same issue here. As soon as our build agents got a new image containing Chrome 130, all tests starting to fail.

• Chrome 130
• TestCafe 3.7.0-rc.1
• Ubuntu 22.04.5

Note that the problem does not seem to affect Edge 130 (which is also Chromium-based).

Same issue with Chrome 130, we move to Edge as workaround, but our application is built for Chrome

• Chrome 130
• TestCafe 3.7.0-rc.1
• MacOS Sonoma 14.7
