Also remove the assets if we don't need them no more.

BTW this is also the reason for the Playwright test failure:

Notice the upper part of the monitor in the left screenshot?

BTW originally I had meant not to compare screenshots, but to overlay with a really blurry <div> and then measure the pixel brightness, then verify that it is relatively bright for light mode and dark for dark mode. But IIRC I got stuck somewhere along the lines. Maybe it was the "measure pixel brightness".

Whoa, I can't believe that I couldn't make it work back then. It's relatively easy:

const{ chromium }=require('playwright');constfs=require('fs');(async()=>{constbrowser=awaitchromium.launch(/* uncomment for debugging:{headless: false } */);constpage=awaitbrowser.newPage();awaitpage.goto('https://git-scm.com');constgetBrightness=async()=>{// Take screenshot as base64constscreenshot=awaitpage.screenshot({type: 'png'});returnawaitpage.evaluate(async(base64)=>{returnnewPromise((resolve)=>{constimg=newImage();img.src='data:image/png;base64,'+base64;img.onload=()=>{constcanvas=document.createElement('canvas');canvas.width=canvas.height=1;constctx=canvas.getContext('2d');// Draw scaled-down image to average colorsctx.drawImage(img,0,0,1,1);const[r,g,b]=ctx.getImageData(0,0,1,1).data;// Calculate brightness, for more details, see// https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_luminance#Relative_luminance_and_%22gamma_encoded%22_colorspacesconstbrightness=0.2126*r+0.7152*g+0.0722*b;resolve(brightness);};});},screenshot.toString('base64'));};console.log(`Estimated brightness: ${awaitgetBrightness()}`);constdarkModeButton=page.locator('#dark-mode-button');awaitdarkModeButton.click();console.log(`Estimated dark brightness: ${awaitgetBrightness()}`);// Inject image into page and analyze brightnessawaitbrowser.close();})();

For me, this prints:

Estimated brightness: 216.4316 Estimated dark brightness: 63.005199999999995

Therefore, I think the best idea would be to change the Playwright tests that want to verify that dark mode is dark, light mode is bright, with a variation of this code, say, dividing the return value by 255 to limit it to the range between 0 and 1, and then assert something like expect(await getBrightness()).toBeCloseTo(0.25, 2) for dark mode (and 0.85 for light mode).

@RafaelJohn9 do you want to run with this and replace the screenshot-based assertions (and likewise these assertions) with this kind of more robust approach?

@RafaelJohn9 maybe that update should be split out into its own PR, which could then be fast-tracked?

I didn't mean the deletion of the resources that are no longer referenced. I meant the test update.

misunderstood that 😅 ,

Awesome, so should I open another PR referencing the same issue, or should I create a separate issue for it ?

In git-scm.com, we play a bit looser (albeit not as loose as the Git mailing list): We don't require an issue for every PR. Just open another PR with the updated test (and removing the stored screenshots), maybe referencing this finding about the Playwright tests being broken by benign updated as justification.
