    I created a Issue that explains it better here https://github.com/badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor/issues/858
  • m
    You are using classes but i don't see you initialize the class. Maybe that's why I cannot find the searchGuestpage
  • r
    well its Static and it works if I call it directly
  • r
    like this it works searchGuestPage.getMyLocator().type(value);
  • f
    You’re using eval for something that could otherwise be solved using eg a switch statement to obtain the correct page object reference, just drop the approach altogether
  • r
    No if its a lot of different pages and different locators, it would be super big
  • r
    but I guess its not possible to use it like that,
  • f
    It probably is possible , but any issues you might encounter doesn’t warrant posting a ticket in the above-mentioned tracker, this is just JS
  • m
    Maybe try it out in a js repl instance. But i dont know if the eval function works with static members
  • r
    Do you have a good way to do something like this? instead of creating steps for each different locator?
  • f
    Interacting with form elements isn’t or shouldn’t be unique for each screen and thus needn’t be hidden in each page object
  • f
    Anything that is unique does warrant its own step definition
  • m
    The goal of BDD is not to have one function that does everything. The goal of BDD is to have a human readable behavior of your end user.
  • m
    An end user would never say i would set field to value. An user would say more in the line of Then i will fill in the form or specific field.
  • c
    After executing 7 it block session closed message is shown . How can i resolve it??
  • m
    do you mean serve the app on localhost:3000 and run the tests against it? here are 3 examples tour-of-heroes-react-cypress-ts - the final app from my gitbook https://app.gitbook.com/s/jK1ARkRsP5OQ6ygMk6el/ https://github.com/muratkeremozcan/tour-of-heroes-react-cypress-ts react-hooks-in-action-with-cypress - the final app built in React Hooks in Action book https://github.com/muratkeremozcan/react-hooks-in-action-with-cypress bookshelf - the final app from Epic React https://github.com/muratkeremozcan/bookshelf

    I am currently experimenting with cy.session with cacheAcrossSpecs option. However cypress throws below error, not sure where am I going wrong. "cy.session()` was passed an invalid option: cacheAcrossSpecs Available options are: 
    validate
    "
  • i
    cy.session(user,()=>{}, {validate(){some validations},cacheAcrossSpec:true})
  • i
    this is how my session command looks like
  • i
    any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
  • s
    Specs is plural, so its: 
    cacheAcrossSpecs: true,
    not 
    cacheAcrossSpec:true
    https://docs.cypress.io/api/commands/session#Caching-session-data-across-specs
  • i
    sorry for typo in my chat message but I do have it correctly typed in my code.
  • s
    Copy code
    cy.session(name, () => {
        cy.request({
          method: 'POST',
          url: '/login',
          body: { name, password: 's3cr3t' },
        }).then(({ body }) => {
          window.localStorage.setItem('authToken', body.token)
        })
      }, {
        validate() {
            cy.visit('/user_profile')
            cy.contains(`Hello ${name}`)
          },
          cacheAcrossSpecs: true,
        }
    When I hover over 
    cacheAcrossSpecs
    in that documentation code locally I get a correct reference. Do you?
  • s
    You might need to double and triple-check your syntax and positioning of that property.

    Hey guys, can someone help me with this, how can I run a test in cypress using chrome, but not start the browser in incognito mode since it blocks notifications, is there any configuration at the code level for this?
