Canaries are modular, lightweight scripts that you can configure to run on a schedule in order to monitor your endpoints and APIs from the outside-in. Canaries simulate the same actions as a user, which makes it possible for you to monitor your user experience continuously. You can now use the new major runtime version, syn-nodejs-puppeteer-3.0 to take advantage of dependencies in Puppeteer 5.5.0, Node.js 12.x, and Chromium 88.0.x.
