📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAndroid WebView visibility reporting now checks whether the WebView is shown and its window is visible. A test verifies that a WebView becomes not visible when another screen appears, while remaining listed. ChangesAndroid WebView visibility
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Change: Bug fix Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The visibility check addresses the reported case, but the new test does not prove the same laid-out WebView remains behind the new screen. This is a bounded coverage gap, not an established production failure. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

596-603: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winAssert the original WebView identity and dimensions.
The test only checks that some WebView remains listed. A replacement WebView or a zero-sized WebView can satisfy that assertion. Capture the initial WebView and assert that the same ID remains listed with positive bounds after the deep link.
Suggested fix

Summary
On Android,
webview listreported every webview of the foreground app asisVisible: true, including the ones on screens left in the back stack:The agent lists the webviews of every window the app process still has attached, and a stopped activity keeps its webview alive and laid out.
isVisiblewas computed aswidth > 0 && height > 0, which is true for those too.Changes
agents/android/java/WebViews.java:isVisiblenow also requires that the view is shown and that its window is visible (isShown()andgetWindowVisibility() == View.VISIBLE). Webviews in the back stack are still listed, since they are alive and scriptable, but as not visible.Testing
test/android.spec.ts("should report a webview covered by another screen as not visible"): opens the playground webview screen, covers it with the login-successful screen through the deep link, and expects the webview to still be listed but with no visible webview. It fails without the fix ("the covered webview stayed visible") and passes with it.-g webview: 14 passed.go test ./...passes;make -C agents/android lintpasses.Related Issues
