here is my package.json:
{
"name": "cypressautomation",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"main": "index.js",
"scripts": {
"test": "/node_modules/.bin/cypress run "
},
"author": "",
"license": "ISC",
"devDependencies": {
"cypress": "^9.2.0",
"mochawesome": "^7.0.1",
"mochawesome-merge": "^4.2.1",
"mochawesome-report-generator": "^6.0.1"
},
"dependencies": {
"cypress-iframe": "^1.0.1"
}
}
I have built some test scripts, and after I saved all files and run npm run test I get the error:
cypressautomation@1.0.0 test > /node_modules/.bin/cypress run The system cannot find the path specified.
I hope you are trying to run project in correct path. if your npm run test is not working, first in command prompt try running command then add the same in package json. I use this coomand to run project ./node_modules/.bin/cypress run
You might be facing issues with relative/absolute path conventions.
First let us cover the basis. From the command line at the folder where the package.json file is located, run npm install for the packages to be downloaded into the local node_modules folder.
You could change the command on package.json to:
"test": "cypress run"
this way we leave npm to figure out where cypress is located (will be in the node_modules folder and npm 'knows' about it)
then try the test command again:
npm run test
