    And they function name is chooseDelivery()
  • s
    So chooseDelivery() { Cy.get('[data-test="xxxx"]') }
  • s
    Then I import that function into commands class and add. Click()
  • s
    So I can re use in my spec file
  • a
    you need to return cy.get(...)
  • s
    Ohh is that why it's not working
  • a
    Yeah, otherwise it'll return undefined
  • s
    What does returning it do
  • s
    It defines the function
  • s
    With the chained. Click?
  • a
    it returns a chainable object
  • s
    Ohhh!
  • s
    That makes sense

    Anyone have a hack for this? Whenever a test fails, I'd like to log the timestamp to the runner log.
  • a
    I don't use it any more, but we used to have this: -
    Copy code
    function logTimeThenRun() {
        return (info) => {
            console.log('******************************************************************\nFAILED DATE / TIME (UTC):', new Date(), '\n******************************************************************\n');
        }
    }

    on('task', {
        failed: logTimeThenRun(),
    });
  • l
    Thanks, I think this is the bit I need:
    Copy code
    js
on('task', {
  failed: logTimeThenRun(),
});
  • a
    I think so
  • a
    That's in the plugins/index.js file btw

    I'm selftaught automated tester, I'm working with 1 manual tester and frontend developer is reviewing my code. Should I change company to find mentor who will show me right way of writing tests?
  • l
    Oops, I just realized you're logging to the console. I'd like to log to the runner log. Still good to have it in the console though 👍
  • a
    Yeah, I don't know if you have access cy.log in that file (perhaps you do, console suited us ok)
  • l
    The cool thing about the runner is you can see it in the Cypress Dashboard screenshots.

    Hi there! I need help to connect an Oracle Database to my Cypress project
  • r
    Anyone can help me? I tried installing cypress-oracle-db, but it throws an error.
  • l
    Can't help if we don't know the error message!
  • f
    Not necessarily. Do some online tutorials for test best practices and Cypress. Learn JS best practices from the frontend colleague. Cement your Cypress knowledge by teaching your manual test colleague. Being in a small team can come with opportunities
  • r
    Sorry, this is the error I got.
  • r
    I tried compiling the source code but nothing happened. Or maybe I'm doing something wrong.
