    In which case the warning message is probably unrelated to the fact that Cypress closes so quickly. Windows can be a fickle beast sometimes, you could try running the same command in PowerShell instead of the vanilla command prompt?

    oke, i find the solution fir this, i just had to open VS code as administrator xd

    hey all i think i found a bug with the 
    Cypress.env()
    function. i have a 
    cypress.env.json
    inside the 
    /cypress
    folder of my Next.js TypeScript project. In there I have a JSON that looks like this:
    Copy code
    json
{
  "CORRECT_PASSWORD": "The password 123"
}
    Inside a 
    test.cy.ts
    file I'm trying to use the env variable like this:
    Copy code
    typescript
const correctPassword = Cypress.env('CORRECT_PASSWORD')
    But when I run the tests (in the Dashboard as well as headless) it just throws me the error as shown on the screenshot. Did anyone have the same problem?
  • g
    okay i basically needed to add the cypress.env.json to the root of the project, not inside the 
    /cypress
    folder

    Copy code
    So Cypress skips the remaining tests in that block, because they would also fail due to the beforeEach hook failure.
  • n
    if you have an error in first 
    beforeEach
    it will skip all contexts, if you have an error in single context in 
    beforeEach
    it should run other contexts but skip rest of the tests in context with error.
  • p
    The error is inside the 
    it
    block itself, not in 
    beforeEach
  • p
    Actually let me double ceck
  • n
    sometimes it could look like the error is in the test but actually is in the before. Depending on the command. You can check on your example if you for example put 
    cy.contains(false)
    in any 
    before
    or inside 
    it
  • p
    Ah, I see. It fails on a global 
    afterEach

    Hi people, I try to install cypress version 10 but when I try to run cypress open, the electron browser is running and exit immediately. Does someone know what the problem is?
  • b
    When I downgrade the version to 9.7.0, it runs just fine
  • n
  • b
    oh I will try to look at it. Thank you 😄
  • b
    @nutritious-honey-65632 I'm new to cypress and a little bit confused with the migration part. Can you tell what should be there in the configuration in order to open cypress normally
  • b
    I see that we needed to pass --browser and --e2e flag to the command in order to run the browser right?
  • n
    you can skip these flags, they are just saving you few clicks. This migration guide shows how to switch to cypress 10. But if you don't have specific requirements you can stay on older version as well
  • b
    okay thanks for your advice then 🙂 still wonder why cannot work with version 10 tho

    Does any have success implementing cy.session in testing oracle apex application ? Would love to know how you guys implemented it.
  • i
    With apex applications, session id attached in the url and apex creates a new session if you do a cy.visit after cy.session, and it does not restore the session. If anyone have successfully implemented it please do let me know. Thanks

    Hi. Does anyone have an idea how to benchmark a functionality in cypress. For example: 1. Click a button 2. Start Timer 3. API request and animations. 4. Stop timer 5. Append test time to JSON file.

    Does any one have any idea on if fixture factories work the same when moving from 
    cy.route
    to 
    cy.intercept
    since refactoring it does not seem to be working as intended!
  • f
    Not sure what you mean by 'fixture factories'?
  • m
    Hi, does anybody know how to generate reports in cypress?
  • a
    As opposed to having multiple feature files, instead we have stored them in to a factory where we can create multiple objects using predetermined object e.g.
    Copy code
    js

const standardUser = organisationFactory("id123", {
name:"bob"
userType:"user"
premium: false,
});

const premiumUser = organisationFactory("id123", {
name:"Jim"
userType:"user"
premium: true,
});

export const user: someType = {
    standard: apiResponseFactory([
        standardUser,
        premiumUser,
    ])
}
  • f
    Take a look at the 
    fixture
    syntax within 
    cy.intercept()
    . I've been able to use that with success https://docs.cypress.io/api/commands/intercept#Stubbing-a-response

    Hi guys, Can someone please help me for this. I am calling the page urls and credentials from a .json file (For eg: test.json) and the command which I used to run is npx cypress open --config-file test.json Now I am trying to add an html report merge with the scripts which I added in package.json file. Looks like its not accepting the .json file options which I have give in the package.json file. See my package.json file reference. Help me to resolve this issue.
  • k
