Package Exports
- @testing-library/cypress
- @testing-library/cypress/add-commands
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@testing-library/cypress) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
cypress-testing-library

Simple and complete custom Cypress commands and utilities that encourage good testing practices.
The problem
You want to use dom-testing-library
methods in your
Cypress tests.
This solution
This allows you to use all the useful
dom-testing-library
methods in your tests.
Table of Contents
Installation
This module is distributed via npm which is bundled with node and
should be installed as one of your project's devDependencies
:
npm install --save-dev @testing-library/cypress
With typescript
Typings are defined under @testing-library/cypress/typings
, and should be
added as follows in tsconfig.json
:
{
"compilerOptions": {
"types": ["cypress", "../@testing-library/cypress/typings"]
}
}
Or if tsconfig.json has a baseUrl
of ../node_modules
as recommended in
the official Cypress documentation use:
{
"compilerOptions": {
"types": ["cypress", "@testing-library/cypress/typings"]
}
}
Usage
cypress-testing-library
extends Cypress' cy
command.
Add this line to your project's cypress/support/commands.js
:
import '@testing-library/cypress/add-commands';
You can now use all of dom-testing-library
's getBy
, getAllBy
, queryBy
and queryAllBy
commands.
See the dom-testing-library
docs for reference
You can find all Library definitions here.
To show some simple examples (from cypress/integration/commands.spec.js):
cy.getAllByText('Jackie Chan').click()
cy.queryByText('Button Text').should('exist')
cy.queryByText('Non-existing Button Text').should('not.exist')
cy.queryByLabelText('Label text', {timeout: 7000}).should('exist')
cy.get('form').within(() => {
cy.getByText('Button Text').should('exist')
})
cy.get('form').then(subject => {
cy.getByText('Button Text', {container: subject}).should('exist')
})
cypress-testing-library
supports both jQuery elements and DOM nodes. This is
necessary because Cypress uses jQuery elements, while dom-testing-library
expects DOM nodes. When you pass a jQuery element as container
, it will get
the first DOM node from the collection and use that as the container
parameter
for the dom-testing-library
functions.
