    ✨ Enhancements

    🔧 :gear: Specify Custom Path to the TestCafe Configuration File (PR #6035 by @Chris-Greaves)

    📚 TestCafe now allows you to specify a custom configuration file path.

    To set this path, use one of the following options:

    ➕ Add Support for Microsoft Edge on Linux (PR testcafe-browser-tools/#210 by @dcsaszar)

    🐧 If you follow the Microsoft Edge Insider Channels for Linux and have Microsoft Edge installed on your Linux machine, you can now launch TestCafe tests in this browser.

    testcafe edge tests/test.js

    ✅ :gear: Deprecated the t.setPageLoadTimeout method (PR #5979)

    📚 Starting with v1.13.0, the t.setPageLoadTimeout method is deprecated. To set the page load timeout, use the new test.timeouts method.

    fixture`Setting Timeouts`
    .page`http://devexpress.github.io/testcafe/example`;

test
    .timeouts({
        pageLoadTimeout: 2000
    })
    ('My test', async t => {
        //test actions
    })

    📚 You can also use test.timeouts to set the pageRequestTimeout and ajaxRequestTimeout.

    fixture`Setting Timeouts`
    .page`http://devexpress.github.io/testcafe/example`;

test
    .timeouts({
        pageLoadTimeout:    2000,
        pageRequestTimeout: 60000,
        ajaxRequestTimeout: 60000
    })
    ('My test', async t => {
        //test actions
    })
