I have an application that uses Okta to log in. I am trying to set up an automation test using Cypress with Puppeteer. The problem I am having is that when I launch puppeteer with {headless: true}, it doesn't fill in the login form. {headless: false} opens another browser window outside of Cypress and works as expected. It fills in the login form, logs in correctly, but I can't run any cypress tests in that window.
on('task', {
login({username, password}) {
return (async () => {
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({headless: false});
const page = await browser.newPage();
await page.goto(config.baseUrl);
await page.waitForNavigation();
await page.waitFor('#okta-signin-username');
await page.type('#okta-signin-username', username, {delay: 100});
await page.waitFor('#okta-signin-password');
await page.type('#okta-signin-password', password, {delay: 100});
await page.click('#okta-signin-submit');
await page.waitForNavigation();
return true;
};
});
Here's how it's being used:
it('my test', () => {
cy.visit('/');
cy.viewport(1280, 1024);
cy.login('username', 'password');
//tests go here
});
The above code opens Chromium and correctly logs in but then the tests fail. It doesn't log in with {headless: true}. Am I missing something here? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
