I am a newcomer to using Cypress and I'm exploring an HTML page for testing purposes. My goal is to test the login authentication and log the body of an XHR.
Here's the test code I wrote for this:
describe('Login test', function () {
it("Test description", () => {
cy.server();
cy.visit("login");
cy.route({
method: "POST",
url: '/login'
}).as("login");
cy.get('#username')
.type(Cypress.env('Account'));
cy.get('#password')
.type(Cypress.env('Password'));
cy.get('#login')
.click();
cy.wait("@login").then(xhr => {
cy.log(JSON.stringity(xhr.response.body));
});
});
});
However, the test failed with the following error message:
CypressError: Timed out retrying: cy.wait() timed out waiting 5000ms for the 1st request to the route: 'route_login'. No request ever occurred.
Can anyone offer assistance, please?
