How can I better organize my cypress code for testing so that I only need to import some functions?
I want to start by creating a file in which to authenticate on the page, and then I want to import it in a test with several functions.
I tried the following export code and it seems to have been incorrect, with errors:
export function login() {
cy.visit('https://*********')
cy.get('input[name="Parameter.UserName"]').type('*****')
cy.get('input[name="Parameter.Password"]').type('*****')
cy.contains('Login').click()
}
export default {login};
And in test :
import {login} from 'elements/pages/login.js'
Your import needs a relative URL
import {login} from '../elements/pages/login.js' // relative from cypress/integration
or if under cypress/suport/elements
import {login} from '../support/elements/pages/login.js'
Absolute imports (where path has no leading ./ or ../) are presumed to be library packages in node_modules.
Cypress provides something called the Custom commands for this purpose, you can read about it here.
Go to cypress/support/commands.js and write all your code here like:
Cypress.Commands.add('login', () => {
cy.visit('https://*********')
cy.get('input[name="Parameter.UserName"]').type('*****')
cy.get('input[name="Parameter.Password"]').type('*****')
cy.contains('Login').click()
})
And then in your any of your test, you can directly add:
cy.login()
all cys must be excuted in testing content, maybe u can try like this:
export default {
// props
visit: (url)=> { return cy.visit(url) }
get: (el)=> { return cy.get(el) }
// methods
login(){
cy.visit('https://*********')
cy.get('input[name="Parameter.UserName"]').type('*****')
cy.get('input[name="Parameter.Password"]').type('*****')
cy.contains('Login').click()
}
}
