Currently, we are using Karma to launch the tests on the browser, either locally or on saucelabs.
The tests on saucelabs are hanging up

It seems the problem is known (https://github.com/karma-runner/karma-sauce-launcher/issues/269) but there is no new release to upgrade to.
Possible options:
1/ Change the test framework to something more recent and maintained that work with Saucelabs, such as Web Test Runner https://modern-web.dev/docs/test-runner/overview/. This means a lot of changes in the JS client tests.
2/ Do not use anymore Saucelabs, and run browser tests on pre-defined browsers installed on our CI (still using Karma)
In the mean time, we will disable the browser tests to make the JS client build succeed.
