ViewsCypress run test on condition
I'm not clear on how to run tests only if an async condition is satisfied: if an element is present on the page.
It'd be something like that, which obviously doesn't work. I can see the alert "enabled", but the nested test "Run proper tests" won't run. What is the right way to do this? Of course, this is simplified, there are a lot of more tests, not just 1.
context("table", () => {
it("Check availability", () => {
cy.get("div.table").then($div => {
if (!Cypress.$(".header[title]", $div).length) {
alert("not enabled");
} else {
alert("enabled");
it("Run proper tests", () => {...});
}
});
});
});

I would make a new instance and use a variable
context("table", () => {
let result
it("Check availability", () => {
cy.get("div.table").then($div => {
if (!Cypress.$(".header[title]", $div).length) {
alert("not enabled");
result='fail'
}
else {
alert("enabled");
}
})
it("Run proper tests", () => {
if (result === 'fail') {
console.log('not enabled')
}
else {
Run proper test
}
})
})

You could try Mocha's pending tests feature via this.skip():
context("table", () => {
it("Run proper tests", () => {
cy.get("div.table").then(function($div) {
if (!Cypress.$(".header[title]", $div).length) {
this.skip()
} else {
// Run proper test
}
});
});
});
This is how a skipped test is displayed in the Cypress runner:
