Method tap

Page.tap This method taps an element matching `selector` by performing the following steps: 1. Find an element matching `selector`. If there is none, wait until a matching element is attached to the DOM. 1. Wait for [actionability](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/actionab

        This method taps an element matching `selector` by performing the following steps:
        1. Find an element matching `selector`. If there is none, wait until a matching element is attached to the DOM.
        1. Wait for [actionability](https://playwright.dev/python/docs/actionability) checks on the matched element, unless `force` option is set. If
           the element is detached during the checks, the whole action is retried.
        1. Scroll the element into view if needed.
        1. Use `page.touchscreen` to tap the center of the element, or the specified `position`.

        When all steps combined have not finished during the specified `timeout`, this method throws a `TimeoutError`.
        Passing zero timeout disables this.

        **NOTE** `page.tap()` will throw if the `hasTouch` option of the browser context is false.

        Parameters
        ----------
        selector : str
            A selector to search for an element. If there are multiple elements satisfying the selector, the first will be
            used.
        modifiers : Union[Sequence[Union["Alt", "Control", "ControlOrMeta", "Meta", "Shift"]], None]
            Modifier keys to press. Ensures that only these modifiers are pressed during the operation, and then restores
            current modifiers back. If not specified, currently pressed modifiers are used. "ControlOrMeta" resolves to
            "Control" on Windows and Linux and to "Meta" on macOS.
        position : Union[{x: float, y: float}, None]
            A point to use relative to the top-left corner of element padding box. If not specified, uses some visible point of
            the element.
        timeout : Union[float, None]
            Maximum time in milliseconds. Defaults to `30000` (30 seconds). Pass `0` to disable timeout. The default value can
            be changed by using the `browser_context.set_default_timeout()` or `page.set_default_timeout()` methods.
        force : Union[bool, None]
            Whether to bypass the [actionability](../actionability.md) checks. Defaults to `false`.
        no_wait_after : Union[bool, None]
            This option has no effect.
            Deprecated: This option has no effect.
        strict : Union[bool, None]
            When true, the call requires selector to resolve to a single element. If given selector resolves to more than one
            element, the call throws an exception.
        trial : Union[bool, None]
            When set, this method only performs the [actionability](../actionability.md) checks and skips the action. Defaults
            to `false`. Useful to wait until the element is ready for the action without performing it. Note that keyboard
            `modifiers` will be pressed regardless of `trial` to allow testing elements which are only visible when those keys
            are pressed.
