Signature​

class HTTPRequest {
  abstract failure(): {
    errorText: string;
  } | null;
}

{ errorText: string; } | null

null unless the request failed. If the request fails this can return an object with errorText containing a human-readable error message, e.g. net::ERR_FAILED. It is not guaranteed that there will be failure text if the request fails.

page.on('requestfailed', request => {
  console.log(request.url() + ' ' + request.failure().errorText);
});
