Hmm, I see, the backend code coverage object is giant and cy.request
fails to fetch it quickly or at all.
I don't think we can just exec curl
in this case, but you did give me an idea. Why do we need to fetch the backend code coverage? We fetch it from the test (in the browser) and then immediately send it back to the plugin using cy.task
to be merged with the rest of the code coverage information.
The coverage goes from the backend to the browser to be immediately sent back to the backend! I think a better solution here would be to fetch coverage in the plugins file using Node's request, which should be fast and cross-platform. Let me implement this as a solution. Also, thanks a lot for the project link
I cloned your repo, but when trying to start it I am getting

You should probably add nyc
as a dependency
The thing is that even after installing nyc as a dependency, it's still unavailable through command line. That's why I suggested at the beginning of the readme to install it globally :
$ npm i -g @angular/cli @nestjs/cli cypress nyc
But you're right, maybe I should put it in the dependencies and change the nestjs start command from
nyc --silent nest start
to
./node_modules/.bin/nyc --silent nest start
What do you think ?
Should be fine in the root dev dependencies of the project

Ok, done :) Nyc has to be installed globally anyway to generate the /coverage folder from the .nyc_output/
Well you could install it locally and just do “npx nyc ...” to generate the reports

Hi,
Is there any update on this? I'm seeing the same issue, the collectBackendCoverage hook times out when the JSON response is too large.
Thanks,
We are also experiencing this, with failure on maybe 1 out of 10 pulls. @bahmutov any progress on an official solution to this issue?
@bahmutov Do we have any update on this issue? We are also facing the same issue, the backend coverage object is ~20MB in our case. Able to get the response when the endpoint is accessed via Postman/ cURL command, but it is timed out in cy.request().
I think cypress team would welcome a pull request
Any update/workaround on this issue? In my case, the coverage payload is 7 MB, and Cypress always times out.
@idrisjaffer89 try sendCoverage(JSON.stringify(coverage), 'backend')

Bug report plus solution for improvement.
Context
I've decided to implement the fullstack code coverage on my project which is a front Angular with back Nestjs. It's quite a big project, both in the front and the back side.
Implementation with Angular was really straightforward thank's to https://github.com/skylock/cypress-angular-coverage-example
Fullstack Implementation was simple too, but led me to some bugs. The cy.request() made during the afterAll hook which is supposed to get the coverage json was failing like 9 out of 10 times (timeout error). I quickly deduced that the size of the json sent was the problem, it's about 5mb.
I tried multiple things like, changing the response timeout to 5 minutes, sending the result compressed as gzip, or sending the json as a string, then parsing it in the front, but none of these solutions worked.
And then I saw that under the hood cy.request which is used to communicate with the backend to get the coverage json, was used with HTTP1 which is super slow.
So I found this workaround which now gets the json, in like 1 sec instead of 20sec (when it worked).
Current implementation
Workaround
By the way you are doing an amazing job at cypress ! 👏
PS
Actually, before implementing the full stack code coverage on my big project, I've first made a minimal working repository with angular nestjs and cypress, to figure out how the implementation could be done.
Here is the link : https://github.com/flogh/cypress-angular-nestjs-code-coverage-fullstack
Maybe you'll want to add it to with the other implementation examples.
