You are just calling the constructor in your code. You also need to call the login function. Also you don't want to put the await in front of your constructor but in front of login.

Code

const tools = new Tools();
await tools.login();

About async constructor functions

Be aware that you cannot use constructor calls (new Tools) with await. The reason is, that await waits for the returned Promise to be resolved. But constructor functions cannot return a Promise as they need to return the newly created object.

That's why libraries like puppeteer use factory functions like puppeteer.launch. These functions will create an object in addition to calling asynchronous functions afterwards. If you want to do something similar in your code, you can do it like this:

class Tools {
  async initialize() {
    // ...
  }
  static async create() {
    const newObject = new Tools();
    await newObject.initialize();
  }
}


const tools = await Tools.create();
