I am writing some cypress
test for the Codemirror Editor. I have use cypress
to type in the input field.
I am trying to achieve the cy.type()
in the CodeMirror Editor. The Data I have in codemirror is inside the span.
<pre class=" CodeMirror-line " role="presentation"><span role="presentation" style="padding-right: 0.1px;"> < h1 > Welcome to your web project canvas! < /h1></span></pre>
The cypress spec code cy.get('pre.CodeMirror-line') .type('Cypress HTML Data')
I am not able to type some data using cypress.
I would appreciate if someone can help?
You're not targeting the correct element in your spec code. You're doing cy.get('pre.CodeMirror-line')
, but a <pre>
tag is not a cy.type()
-able element.
You need to get the hidden CodeMirror <textarea>
instead. This can be selected using .CodeMirror textarea
. The following JS is a demo spec that works on codemirror.net
:
describe('Codemirror', () => {
it('can be tested using textarea', () => {
cy.visit('https://codemirror.net/')
// CodeMirror's editor doesn't let us clear it from the
// textarea, but we can read the Window object and then
// invoke `setValue` on the editor global
cy.window().then(win => {
win.editor.setValue("")
})
cy.get('.CodeMirror textarea')
// we use `force: true` below because the textarea is hidden
// and by default Cypress won't interact with hidden elements
.type('test test test test', { force: true })
})
})
