Userflow testing with headless testing

[SivasubramanianV]

Can we do userflow testing with wdio headless mode?
How does the result of this reflect the real user scenario?
Which is better for reflecting actual web performance?Head or headless

We do not officially support wdio but I would expect a getPuppeteer for the headless browser to work.

If you are using the old headless mode there can be some differences from standard browser execution. In general I would recommend using the new headless mode which should mirror normal browser execution. I'm not sure which one wdio is using though.
