Hey @uflidd ! I wanted to know that when first visiting www.yourdomain.com.localhost and then e.g. visiting www.yourdomain2.com.localhost, does Cypress' outer URL get stuck in www.yourdomain.com.localhost ?
I'm having a similar issue (rather not a missing enhancement) where Cypress' doesn't trigger a full page load after visiting another subdomain if it first did visit one.
E.g.
a.b.com
=> Success, localStorage
and cookies
all are loaded.b.b.com
=> Failed, localStorage
and cookies
are cleared and outerURL is stuck at a.b.com
whereas inner one is correct.I want to know if you have same exp as I do 'so that we may update the content of your issue to include this, or I then have to create a separate one.
Thanks for consideration!
I found that this works (thanks to https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/1488#issuecomment-396435553)
export default defineConfig({
...
hosts: {
'*.localhost': '127.0.0.1'
},
});
While this does NOT work for some reason:
export default defineConfig({
...
hosts: {
'www.adamogeva.no': '127.0.0.1'
},
});
throwing the following error
My test looks like this:
describe('hosts option in cypress config', () => {
var baseUrl = 'https://www.adamogeva.no.localhost';
it('Visit domain that is not added to localhost', () => {
cy.visit(baseUrl);
// I've added <div id="local">Local</div> on the website
cy.get('#local')
.should('exist')
.and('have.text', 'Local');
});
});
So the question is why domains doesn't work. The workaround would be to use .localhost baseUrls when running tests locally and just www.domain.com when running tests in production.
What would you like?
All browsers now support that you can open a domain locally by adding .localhost at end of the domain name,. Cypress however doesn't support this yet.
More specically: www.yourdomain.com goes to production www.yourdomain.com.localhost goes to your local (without you having to specify this in the host file)
Why is this needed?
We have a saas application that can be open in multiple domains. Manually having to update host file to add/remove hosts constantly is a painfully repeating operation.
Cypress testing would get an great enhancement for us that are working typically with apps that can be open by multiple domains.
