I recently picked up the cypress config & tests for our project after the original developer left. I'm haivng problems getting the existing tests to run: The tests all throw this error when running from the command line:
TypeError: The following error originated from your test code, not from Cypress.
. > fs.existsSync is not a function
When I start up the GUI, it throws the same error, like so:
I found nothing in the issues nor on the web, except to see that fs.existsSync is deprecated.
When I checked the cypress.io's gitter site, they recommended that I trap errors with the following code which I added to my support/index.js file:
Cypress.on('uncaught:exception', (err, runnable) => {
// returning false here prevents Cypress from
// failing the test
return false
})
And now cypress crashes with the following before even starting the GUI:
This is a basic test:
Which use a series of defined commands like so:
The tests were running when originally created; I have upgraded to cypress 4.8.0 with no luck.
Has anyone seen anything like this? I'd sure like to get these tests running again. thanks
