    @User thanks for sharing this!

    Hello, I am testing a react app in Cypress and when I navigate to a page that is supposed to display a PDF document, I get this error "Failed to load PDF file" . I only get that error when I navigate to that page inside Cypress. Outside Cypress, my app works just fine and the PDF files are rendered with no issue. Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this?

    @User we are precising this vocable as part of the release of component testing. the confusing directories names are getting a review as well
  • b
    Short answer is we did not chnage those yet
  • b
    But a cypress classic test (without component testing) could be an integration test when all the APIs are mocked
  • b
    Hence the name...

    Thanks for the explanation, that all makes sense to me. glad to see it's being considered

    Hmm I wonder why this happens. I intended to click the slider handle and move it to the right. But the position has an offset.
  • a
    Its a webcomponent and i use shadow(). Any issues know around that?
  • a
    As you see here thats the "right" position
  • i
    Could it be that because you click on the center, and then move from that point to the last x coord of the element?
  • a
    but center is not really the center.
  • i
    Am I missing something, looks like it is not even interacting with the input.slider
  • i
    Or that slider has got attribute name=crispyness?
  • a
    it has
  • a
    see the log on the right
  • a
    ah yeah it should at least move it right?
  • a
    is there a problem triggering events in a shadow dom?
  • i
    Haven't had the need to use use cy.shadow() , so can't be much of a help 😦
  • a
    Yeah but thanks for trying 🙂
  • a
    Im also using it for the first time
  • i
    I know that some time ago mouse events didn't really work unless the clientX and clientY was set, you might try that
  • i
  • a
    yeah but as i do it for an example I would like to try to prevent it 🙂
  • i
    Best of luck, if you find a solution , drop it here 😄
  • a
    thanks

    Hi @everyone, there is a way to create an external database to interact with cypress. I'll explain my case studies better: I have these data, username and password and other types of data that now I have put them as constants inside the code, making them intervene in the test with cy.type
  • f
    I no longer want to have constants inside the code, but take the data I entered in the constants and put them in the database and go and call them somehow with cypress
  • f
    @everyone ??
  • g
    I think your question is very ambiguous. do you want to save data from the app into the database? Do you want to load a fixture? Do you want to put the user in Cypress.env?
