I needed to use xbath in Cypress. I installed xpath plugin into Cypress (according to the instructions), inserted "require('cypress-xpath')" into my e2e.js file, used cy.xpath(...) and run the test. In the test execution run I am having the following Error message:
Cannot create property 'type' on string 'xpath'
EDIT: There is not much of a code. This is what my e2e.js file looks like:
// This example support/e2e.js is processed and
// loaded automatically before your test files.
//
// This is a great place to put global configuration and
// behavior that modifies Cypress.
//
// You can change the location of this file or turn off
// automatically serving support files with the
// 'supportFile' configuration option.
//
// You can read more here:
// https://on.cypress.io/configuration
// ***********************************************************
// Import commands.js using ES2015 syntax:
import './commands'
// Alternatively you can use CommonJS syntax:
// require('./commands')
require('cypress-xpath')
The error is thrown just after requiring xpath in this file.
Does anyone know how to handle this, what did I miss?
Thanks
I tried to follow instruction and installed the xpath plugin. Into e2e.js file I put "require('cypress-xpath')". I expected that after this as stated in the documentation, I will be able to use cy.xpath to find elements with their xpaths.
