I want to select input based on type equal to 'submit'. Why does this selector not work?
await page.click('input[type="submit"')
For:
<input type="submit" value="submit" />
It's a typical selector in j@uery.

Reset to default 4You may need to wait for the element specified by the selector to be added to the DOM and visible before attempting to click it:
await page.waitForSelector('input[type="submit"]', {
visible: true,
});
Additionally, as AJC24 pointed out, you are in fact missing a right square bracket ], so the selector must be accurate before passing it to page.click():
await page.click('input[type="submit"]');
Looks like you have a typo in your selector to me. It should be:
await page.click('input[type="submit"]');
You were missing the ] character at the end of your selector.
