## New features

### Web Dashboard

The new web dashboard brings real-time visualization to load testing. This feature allows users to monitor test progress and analyze
results dynamically, enhancing the overall testing experience.

#### Real-time test results

Activate this feature using the environment variable K6_WEB_DASHBOARD=true. For this initial release, the dashboard is not enabled
by default to allow users to opt into this new experience as it continues to evolve.

```bash
K6_WEB_DASHBOARD=true k6 run script.js
```

Once enabled and the test script is running, navigate to [http://localhost:6565](http://localhost:6565) in your web browser to access the dashboard.

#### Test report

The web dashboard also offers an [HTML test report](https://github.com/grafana/xk6-dashboard/blob/master/screenshot/k6-dashboard-html-report-screen-view.png?raw=true) for detailed analysis, enabling easy sharing and downloading capabilities for
collaboration.

To access and download the report, click on the `Report` button located in the top right corner of the dashboard.

### Add `clear` to the `locator` class [browser#1149](https://github.com/grafana/xk6-browser/pull/1149)

The new `clear` method on `locator` will clear text boxes and input fields. This is useful when navigating to a website where the text boxes and input fields already contain a value that needs to be cleared before filling it with a specific value.
