(async () => {
  // Launch browser with proxy settings
  const browser = await chromium.launch({
    headless: false,  // Set to true for headless mode
    proxy: {
      server: 'http://[HOST]:[PORT]',  // Replace with your proxy host and port
      username: '[USERNAME]',        // Replace with your proxy username
      password: '[PASSWORD]'         // Replace with your proxy password
    }
  });

  const context = await browser.newContext();
  const page = await context.newPage();

  // Test the proxy by visiting an IP verification website
  await page.goto('http://httpbin.org/ip');
  // Capture a screenshot to verify the setup
  await page.screenshot({ path: 'example.png' });

  await browser.close();
})();
