Playwright lets you record HAR, but there's also context.tracing.start. The latter also lets you capture screenshots to the resulting ZIP, but HAR file seems to be better supported outside of Playwright. So what is the difference, are trace files basically HAR files with screenshots, or is there any info missing that would be found in a HAR?
How does Playwright tracing file compare to HAR file?
