I wrote a small app that opens my chrome browser, fills in a form, submits and then takes a print screen of the final web page.

Playwright works perfectly for this, but the fact that seems to add about 170mb to my jar is making my pipelines struggle.

It seems like in the dependency there are some binaries that I might not need, since I am not using Playwright browsers, this is how Im using Playwright:

public void processHtml(String url) {
    Map<String,String> env = new HashMap<>();
    env.put("PLAYWRIGHT_SKIP_BROWSER_DOWNLOAD","1");
    Playwright playwright = Playwright.create(new Playwright.CreateOptions().setEnv(env));
    BrowserType chromium = playwright.chromium();
    Browser browser = chromium.launch(new BrowserType.LaunchOptions()
            .setExecutablePath(Path.of(ChromePathFinder.getChromeExecutablePath())));
    Page page = browser.newPage();
    page.navigate(url);
    page.fill("input#textbox", "Test Input");
    page.check("input[name='radio'][value='option1']");
    page.selectOption("select#combobox", "option2");
    page.click("button[type='submit']");
    page.waitForLoadState();
    String screenshotPath = "screenshot.png";
    page.screenshot(new Page.ScreenshotOptions().setPath(Paths.get(screenshotPath)));
    browser.close();
    playwright.close();
}

and my POM looks like this:
