WebDriver: Keep connections alive after sending an error response - #11281
Conversation
Previously, a connection stopped servicing requests after any command completed with an error. Errors are ordinary protocol responses, so an error response now keeps the connection alive in the same way a success response does.

Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change keeps WebDriver connections alive after error responses, but requests with multiple Connection options may still be closed unexpectedly, potentially causing session or test failures. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness to parse all connection options correctly. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 3✅ Passed checks (3 passed)

Parse each Connection option.
At Lines 191-192, the code reads only the first Connection field and compares its complete value. Connection is a comma-delimited, case-insensitive option list, and repeated fields form one combined list. A request such as Connection: upgrade, keep-alive will therefore close after its response. Iterate all matching fields and match each trimmed option. Add coverage for a multi-option value. (rfc-editor.org)

This is just moving existing code. Fixing this is a larger change outside the scope of this PR.

@tcl3, agreed. This PR preserves the existing Connection parsing behavior while applying it to error responses.
The full parsing change can be handled separately. Would you like a follow-up GitHub issue for it?

The WPT harness sends commands over a single keep-alive connection, so prior to this change hundreds of WebDriver WPT tests were timing out: https://wpt.fyi/results/webdriver/tests/classic?diff&filter=ADC&run_id=5202417204592640&run_id=5160952315248640
