To change the screen resolution, please specify the `screen-resolution` parameter in the `browserWSEndpoint` URL.

    const pw = require('playwright-core');
    
    (async () => {
      const browser = await pw.chromium.connect({
        wsEndpoint: 'wss://cloud.testingbot.com/playwright?key=api_key&secret=api_secret&browserName=chrome&browserVersion=latest&screen-resolution=1600x900',
      });
      const context = await browser.newContext();
      const page = await context.newPage();
    
      await page.goto('https://testingbot.com/');
      await page.screenshot({ path: 'screenshot.png' });
    
      await browser.close();
    })();

Changing the screen resolution does not resize the viewport. To change the viewport with Playwright, please use `page.setViewportSize`.
