How to skip downloading Puppeteer and provide a path to an existing Chrome browser

@percy/agent

If you would like to skip downloading the Chromium browser Puppeteer downloads, you will need to set two environment variables:

  • PUPPETEER_SKIP_CHROMIUM_DOWNLOAD - Set this to true
  • PUPPETEER_EXECUTABLE_PATH - Set this to the path of the Chrome browser on your system / CI image.

Setting both of these environment variables is required for this to work. We currently use Puppeteer for various tasks (depending on the command you're running), so it's essential you provide a path to a working Chrome browser.

Please review Puppeteer's environment docs for more information.
