I am trying to automate a web application. I am having issues overcoming one scenario. I have a drop down menu from which i select an item .

Manually: After selecting the item if i click on the dropdown icon or anywhere on the screen the dropdown list disappears.

Automation: When doing with cypress, i am able to click the drop down menu and select item. But when i click the icon or any other area of the application the drop down does not disappear. As a result I am not able to move ahead.

Kindly advise if someone has encountered an issue of this type.

Thanks in advance.
