Memory accumulation

Reporting a bug.

What is the current behavior?

During execution of tests there is a great accumulation memory and after a number of tests (in my case 40) Internet Explorer v11 fails because of the limit of memory (1.4GB), so the tests stops executing or there is an Out of Memory error.

What is the expected behavior?

Could some memory cleaner or garbage collector after test execution be implemented? Or finding a way to not accumulate so much memory.

How would you reproduce the current behavior (if this is a bug)?

Provide the test code and the tested page URL (if applicable)

Test code

Specify your

• operating system: Windows 7
• testcafe version: 0.20.4
• node.js version: 8.11.3

Hi @Lupiano

In some scenarios IE11 take a lot of memory. If you perform a search in Google by the 'ie memory leak' phrase, you will find a lot of information about it.
We have a suggestion, whose implementation should fix the problem - Restart browser if it became unresponsive.
Vote for this suggestion and track it to be aware about of our progress with it.
