Command API
API available via page.runjs command
NPM modules
Modules "fs", "path" and "os" exposed with the corresponding variables.
const title = ( await bs.page.title() ) + os.version();
Available since ver. 3.2.6
Puppeteer methods
bs - object representing browsing session
browser - instance of Browser, which is being created in test setup with configuration provided in Puppetry app
page - instance of Page (alias of bs.browser.page)
performance
resources - array with network activity logs
getGaTracking - log of Google Analytics beacons
getTarget - get target by name
getTargetOrFalse - the same as previous, but when target is not available in the DOM return false instead of throwing exception
target(element: ElementHandle) - helpers 
getProp(prop: string): Promise<string> - obtain element property value
getAttr(attr: string): Promise<string> -  obtain element attribute value
isVisible(): Promise<boolean> - find out f element visible
select(value: string): Promise<void> - set a value on select element
Examples:
// Navigating to "https://dsheiko.github.io/react-html5-form/"
  await bs.page.goto( "https://dsheiko.github.io/react-html5-form/", {
    timeout: 30000,
    waitUntil: "load"
  });
  
  const title = await bs.page.title();
Working with targets
Assuming we have targets SUBMIT_BTN, EMAIL_INPUT defined with Puppetry app
// Emulating mouse click
await ( await bs.getTarget( "SUBMIT_BTN" ) ).click();   
// Emulating user input
await ( await bs.getTarget( "EMAIL_INPUT" ) ).type( "[email protected]" );
// Obtaining "name" attribute's value of EMAIL_INPUT 
const name = await bs.target( await bs.getTarget( "EMAIL_INPUT" ) ).getAttr( "name" );       
Jest tools
Please find available API in official documentation of Jest framework. Most demanded tool for the context is expect. In the scope of the test it is extended with the following methods:
expect( result )
toBeOk( expectedValue, assertionSource) - assert the received value is truthy
toBeEqual( expectedValue, assertionSource) -  assert the received value equals expected one
toIncludeSubstring(expectedSubstring, assertionSource) - assert the received string contains expected one
toPassCondition(operator, valueToCompare, assertionSource) - assert the received value satisfies a given Puppetry condition
toMatchBoundingBoxSnapshot(snapshot, assertionSource) - assert the received bounding box matches a given snapshot
toMatchPosition(position, target, counterpart, assertionSource) - assert the received position object matches a given one
Examples:
// Asserting that page HTML satisfies the given constraint
result = await bs.page.content();       
expect( result ).toIncludeSubstring( "demo", "page.assertContent" );
​
// Asserting that window scroll offset satisfies the given constraint
result = await ( await bs.page.evaluate( () => window.scrollX ) );       
expect( result ).toPassCondition( "lt", 10000, "page.assertScroll" );
​
// Asserting that EMAIL_INPUT element is visible
result = await bs.target( await EMAIL_INPUT() ).isVisible();       
expect( result ).toBeOk( "EMAIL_INPUT.assertVisible" );
​
// Asserting that the bounding box of the element satisfies the given constraint
result = await ( await SUBMIT_BTN() ).boundingBox();    
expect( result ).toMatchBoundingBoxSnapshot( {
       "xOperator": "gt",
       "xValue": 0,
       "yOperator": "gt",
       "yValue": 0,
       "wOperator": "gt",
       "wValue": 0,
       "hOperator": "gt",
       "hValue": 0
     }, "SUBMIT_BTN.assertBoundingBox" );
​
 // Asserting that the bounding box of the element satisfies the given constraint
result = {
        target: await ( await DAY_SELECT() ).boundingBox(),
        counterpart: await ( await MONTH_SELECT() ).boundingBox()
      };       
expect( result ).toMatchPosition( "left", "DAY_SELECT", "MONTH_SELECT", "DAY_SELECT.assertPosition" );
Helpers
Helpers are functions available in specification (suite) scope
util 
png - build screenshot option 
pollForValue - poll for value (used by page.assignVarRemotely)
exp - template expressions functions
bytesToString - translates size into human-readable string
generateTmpUploadFile - creates a file in temporary directory by given name and size
fetch - Node.js-implementation of window.fetch
localStorage - Node.js-implementation of localStorage
png( id, parentId, screenshotTitle, options ): Object - build screenshot options
Example:
await bs.page.screenshot( util.png( "id", "id", "Just for test", {
  "fullPage":true
}));
This command saves screenshot in ./screenshots/All--available--methods/Just-for-test.png given that test title is All available methods
Node.js
In the test scope one can access Node.js modules.
