Cypress testing a form












0














I am testing a form using Cypress. I need to get a pop up during testing only to enter one of the input fields in the form because it should be a unique value and it should be different each time I run the test. How to write the test script in Cypress for this? Please help me. Thank you.

    I am not exactly understand what you want to achieve. Who is opening the pop up? What is your exactly problem? The pop up? Or top find an unique value? What do you have tried so far?

  • Yes I am confused also. Can you give us more information. Is the popup a modal?

  • There are a number of input fields in the form in which one value is unique. Say the input field CSS class is 'unique_id'. Then I call the field as, cy.get('.unique_id').type('123456') Since the value should be unique, each time I run the test, I need to edit the value in the code. Instead of doing this, to fully automate the test, I would like to get a pop up to type the value then return back to the test. I don't know whether it is possible or not. Or suggest me other options to automate. Hope it is clear this time. Thank you for your consideration and time.
