What are the differences between async and callbacks in TestCafe?

In TestCafe, async functions allow you to write cleaner code by using the 'await' keyword, making it easier to read and maintain. Callbacks, on the other hand, can lead to callback hell, making the code harder to follow.

Can you give me an example of using async in TestCafe?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import { Selector } from 'testcafe';

fixture `My Fixture`
    .page `http://example.com`;

test('My Test', async t => {
    const element = Selector('#myElement');
    await t
        .click(element)
        .expect(element.visible).ok();
});

What about using callbacks? How does that look?

Using callbacks in TestCafe can look like this:

import { Selector } from 'testcafe';

fixture `My Fixture`
    .page `http://example.com`;

test('My Test', function(t) {
    const element = Selector('#myElement');
    t
        .click(element)
        .expect(element.visible).ok();
});

This approach can become complex with nested callbacks.

Which method is recommended for new TestCafe projects?

It's generally recommended to use async/await for new TestCafe projects due to its readability and ease of use.
