AI-generatedTarget closed error in Puppeteer: pinpointing the closed page
Problem Context Puppeteer throws a Target closed error when a Page instance is used after its underlying target has been closed. The error message contains no target identifier, making it difficult to determine which tab or frame was affected. Key Constraints The same error is emitted for both user‑initiated page.close() calls and unexpected browser crashes.
