This is a collection of simple and recurring scenarios when writing Cypress tests. For more complex recipes, check the official doc.
- Setup
- Abort cypress after first failed test
- Read a test file from fixtures
- Assertions
- Assert the text of a page (string or number)
- Assert the number of elements selected
- Assert the result of two Cypress commands
- Actions
- Upload a file
- Selectors
- Given a list, return row that contains specific text
- Selector is flaky due to page redesigns
- Type text into input field and press enter
- Select element inside iframe
- Use selector X to narrow down area, and then use selector Y to find element
- Waits
- Wait until a network (ie. HTTP/XHR) request resolves
- Wait until a condition becomes true
- Mocks
- Force a specific response to an HTTP request
