Am I correct in that Cypress will clear out all local storage, sessions, and cookies between tests by default?

kinda 🙂 That's what they're working toward, but it isn't always the case right now. If you have the

experimentalSessionAndOrigin

flag, it will. Some reading material: https://docs.cypress.io/guides/core-concepts/writing-and-organizing-tests#Test-Isolation

Ah okay! I thought I was losing my mind there for a bit, some "stuff" was definitely getting left behind

Hi, I would like to use the cy.screenshot clip option to clip EVERY edge of the shot, but the given example says it only clips the left and top. So to be clear, I want to clip a few pixels off the top, bottom, left and right. What is the syntax for that, or is it not possible...?

This can be solvable with some math! What is the dimensions of the window you're working with?

future-gold-77198

10/26/2022, 8:33 PM

two different examples. One is 700px x 800px and the other 1400px x 900px. Are you implying that if I wanted to take 5 pixels off each side I could do something like { x: 5, y: 5, width: 890, height:1390 } ?

cuddly-kitchen-97815

10/26/2022, 8:33 PM

Yes, exactly!

future-gold-77198

10/26/2022, 8:34 PM

cool, I'll try it out and report back how it goes

cuddly-kitchen-97815

10/26/2022, 8:34 PM

Because the x and y are increasing from the top-left corner, we can assume the height and width also stretch down and to the right, so adjusting that height to stop just shy of the bottom and right should allow you to manipulate the size of the image as a whole. I hope it works!

Hello, is it possible to access local storage in different origins? For example I’m on www.google.com and I want to access ogs.google.com in my local storage. I tried the localStorage.getItem() command and looks like it only gets items from the main origin (www.google.com in this example)

Nevermind, using cy.origin to access the local storage of another domain works.

Hello, I am obviously doing something very stupid here, but I can't figure out what.. Here you can see in the code below, I setup an intercept, assert that sortOrder equals Decending in the request body, and log "tested" (for my own sanity) This ALL happens, and works perfectly.. (yay me)..

Copy code

ts
it('should correctly parse sort order when loading existing aqs', () => {
  cy.intercept('api/aqs/join*', (req) => {
    cy.wrap(req).its('body.aqs.properties.sortInfo.sortOrder').should('equal', 'Descending');
    cy.log('tested');
  }).as('aqsJoinIntercept');

  openDataExplorer(); // Gets to correct place in UI
  loadSavedQuery(); // Searches for existing aqs and initalises the aqs join ajax request to the api and then ensures the search dialog has been removed.

  // cy.wait('@aqsJoinIntercept');
});

But, you will see I have commented out

cy.wait('@aqsJoinIntercept')

.. When I have this in my code, the test fails with the error (attached image). And I have no idea what it means or what I am supposed to do about it. The reason I have added this

cy.wait

is because originally I messed up the intercept and only checked for

api/aqs/join

and not considered the query strings. But the test 'passed' because it NEVER intercepted the request. Which was BAD... After reading, I

believed

the solution was to

cy.wait()

the request had been intercepted.. Any advice would be welcome.

Hi, use fake users. You should not use real users data.

Hello. I have a question regarding assertions. When I run the following code the assertion is done properly:

Copy code

cy.on('window:confirm', (str) => {
  expect(str).to.equal('Hello , Are you sure you want to confirm?')
})

But I get an error if I use should instead of expect, like this:

Copy code

cy.on('window:confirm', (str) => {
  expect(str).to.equal('Hello , Are you sure you want to confirm?')
})

Why is the 2nd one throwing an error?

Hello, is there a trick / hack / official way to allow Chrome in headless mode to successfully show as Full Screen? Worked fine in Chrome headed i.e. Cypress open and with Electron. I have prepared a example code block:

Copy code

it.only('Highcharts full screen', () => {
    cy.setCookie(
      'CookieConsent',
      '{stamp:%274iW40LjHSz/vj5fF4Rso58eW1qHOn0GOA3PGSfLSi1hIkls0jI1BdA==%27%2Cnecessary:true%2Cpreferences:true%2Cstatistics:true%2Cmarketing:true%2Cver:3%2Cutc:1666859233865%2Cregion:%27hu%27}'
    );
    cy.visit('/');
    cy.get('[title="Chart context menu"]').click();
    cy.get('[class="highcharts-menu-item"]').contains('View in full screen').realClick();
    cy.screenshot();
  });

Run

npx cypress run --browser electron --config baseUrl=https://www.highcharts.com/demo/line-basic

and the screenshot chart will show as Full Screen. But run

npx cypress run --browser chrome --config baseUrl=https://www.highcharts.com/demo/line-basic

and the screenshot shows that Full Screen was ignored. I'm wondering if there is a browser argument that disabling this! 🤔

Hi Team, Is there any way to print broswer name & browser version information during the cypress execution, in order to integrate with the report?

stale-optician-85950

10/27/2022, 9:07 AM

Yip, all info here https://docs.cypress.io/api/cypress-api/browser Example:

cy.log('Browser info', Cypress.browser);

for the browser object. Then you can use:

Copy code

cy.log('Browser name', Cypress.browser.name);
cy.log('Browser version', Cypress.browser.majorVersion);

Hi i am using CRA, context api i have installed cypress in src directory, the application has many files/components, most of the files have dependent components which are referenced using absolute imports/paths like instead of this import foo from '../../src/foo.js' currently being referenced like this import bar from '/bar.js' whenever i try to import any component for unit testing in cypress, the dependent components doesn't load, it throws an error

What is the problem in asking same question if it was not answered in proper way there is a good chance that people in other channel will try to respond and also i think we asking ppl to restrict their posts will loose interest bro
