Is there a better way to assert that all intercepted requests are successful in Cypress?-CodePudding

I'm trying to test that all 12 requests involved in creating an object are successful, so far this is the only way I can figure out that works. IS there a better/more efficient/more flexible way that won't break as soon as we add or remove a request?

              cy.intercept('/api/**/**').as('objectCreation');
              $button.click();

              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
              cy.wait('@objectCreation').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);

CodePudding user response：

I'll like more details about your question:

Are the requests identical?

However, to answer your question on how to simplify your shared, code snippet...you could create a variable representing the request creation attempts & keep calling the cy.intercept() method & asserting its response until you hit the specified request creation amount like so:

const reqObjCreationNum = 0; // reqObjCreationNum object creation attempts number

/**
 * @param {number} reqObjCreationNum - number of object creation attempts
 */
const createObject = ({ reqObjCreationNum }) => {
  cy.intercept('/api/**/**').as('objectCreation');

  while (reqObjCreationNum <= 12) {
    cy.wait('@objectCreation')
      .its('response.statusCode')
      .should('eq', 200);

    reqObjCreationNum  = 1;
  }
};

createObject({ reqObjCreationNum });

I would suggest the DRY programming concept as a future reading.
