ConsoleMessage

ConsoleMessage objects are dispatched by page via the [event: Page.console] event. For each console messages logged
in the page there will be corresponding event in the Playwright context.

# Listen for all console logs
page.on("console", ->(msg) { puts msg.text })

# Listen for all console events and handle errors
page.on("console", ->(msg) {
  if msg.type == 'error'
    puts "error: #{msg.text}"
  end
})

# Get the next console log
msg = page.expect_console_message do
  # Issue console.log inside the page
  page.evaluate("console.error('hello', 42, { foo: 'bar' })")
end

# Deconstruct print arguments
msg.args[0].json_value # => 'hello'
msg.args[1].json_value # => 42
msg.args[2].json_value # => { 'foo' => 'bar' }
