Hi everyone, I just got on a project and inherited old cypress tests in version 3.2.0 (I haven't tried updating to a newer version yet) and I can't open cypress workspace. I downloaded cypress dependencies from the url provided in the error msg. Also i did npm install in the cypress folder. this is the terminal error i get after $ npx cypress open It looks like this is your first time using Cypress: 3.2.0 ✖ Verifying Cypress can run /home/user/.cache/Cypress/3.2.0/Cypress → Cypress Version: 3.2.0 Cypress failed to start. This is usually caused by a missing library or dependency. The error below should indicate which dependency is missing. https://on.cypress.io/required-dependencies If you are using Docker, we provide containers with all required dependencies installed. ---------- (Cypress:170090): Pango-ERROR **: 14:49:41.550: Harfbuzz version too old (1.4.2) ---------- Platform: linux (Ubuntu Linux - 20.04)

Is their a way to skip the first two clicks when you do

I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to get a specific div based on the value of a custom field. I've been looking through the docs but it's still not clear how I should do it. Let's say there's an element

html
<div someCustomField="special value"></div>

Assuming this isn't the only div with

someCustomField

, how do I get the reference to the element where it has

someCustomField

AND that field is set to

special value

?

you query by attribute

cy.get('[someCustomField="special value"]')

, see https://glebbahmutov.com/cypress-examples/9.7.0/commands/querying.html#using-data-attribute

awesome, thanks!

npx cypress open --e2e --browser chrome

Hello, Our product UI is build with ExtJS and to load the UI in the development environment takes around 30 - 60 seconds as we do not build the libraries(it does not happen in Production). When we used use version before Cypress 10, it used to take similar time to load the UI as that of doing it manually, but after upgrading to Cypress 10.3.0, it takes around 4 mins to load the UI. Its basically cy.visit() that takes so long time. We tried this on multiple development environments and we are seeing the exact behavior. Any idea how to debug this problem and identify the root cause ?

I am testing a feature where a password reset link is sent to the user in the mail, where the user needs to click on the reset link and it takes u to a new page where u reset the password. I want to write an automation script for this but I have no idea how to access the link directly through the test without logging into my mail

https://slides.com/bahmutov/email-testing is a good starting point

Is it necessary when moving to Cypress 10 to change the spec names to

.cy.js

? this is causing a lot of problems with our migration. All our spec files end in

_spec.js

and all our CI containers, configs, logging and reporting tools are setup to work with

_spec.js

Hey guys! The "TypeScript Configuration" link is broken

And this link for Next examples is not working as well

Any help ?

Yes it is necessary as far as I know.

You can configure your specPattern to use the pattern "_spec.js" instead of ".cy.js"

Hello, I have a problem with cypress starting two times on the first test. I am using the baseUrl and it was working fine until I changed the URL. Before the URL was pointing at stage env and now I run the app that I am testing locally so the baseUrl is pointing to the app URL locally. So the only difference is that the app I am testing is now running locally and before it was on some server.

Not opening and closing the browser between each spec in run-mode, is this under consideration and is there an issue tracking it?

Hi there. Is it possible to override builtin commands by using

Cypress.Commands.overwrite

?

It was possible until 10.0. But I haven't found any breaking changes info that builtin commands aren't available for overriding

In the latest code there is a check for invalid overwrite and a little above there are three objects one of them for builtin commands, but in line 117 there are only two of them. It looks like a bug, isn't it?

Has anyone been able to update an existing excel file using cypress task?

focus should be on your app, not excel, have premade excel sheets that your tests use, dynamically changing excel data will take too much time for literally no-return

My focus is on my app only. I am validating import functionality. I can't keep on importing same data, so need to update existing excel file and then provide it to app

there are ways arround it, you can always make the data dynamic(dates and such) or have a file generator
