Description

Is it possible to use chromeless to monitor the console output and see if there are any error messages in the console? The use case for this would be a smoke test of the application hitting every page looking for console errors (and resource errors?) as part of our CI release.

I believe casper.js has this via their events API (remote.message),

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how chromeless currently exposes page events (e.g., see the existing source code for event handling). Look into Puppeteer's 'console' event to capture console messages. Implement a method like `onConsole` or modify the existing API to allow users to listen for console.error output. Consider adding an example in the documentation. Ensure the implementation fits the current architecture and does not break existing functionality.
