For Windows it will actually install Webview2 if it's not there already so it's not running on deprecated IE.

So basically on Windows it will use Edge. The idea is good, but this is not the first time someone try this. At the end it is all about testing, tools that needs to make 100% ( not 99% or 99.99% ) sure functions and rendering on all platform are intended as it is.

Good to know. Still awful on MacOS, and you'd presumably need to check distro by distro for Linux.
