Question About Purpose #5

Closed theAndrewCline closed 4 years ago

theAndrewCline commented 4 years ago

So it seems like the target of this project is to allow cypress to send web socket messages to a server. it is not to mock out the rxjs webSocket function and simulate messages being sent to it.

Hi Andrew, the purpose is to be able to test/call your server endpoints using Cypress, not to mock them. Think of it as a cy.request, but for WS calls.

Thanks for the clarification! I'm really looking for a way to mock out a web socket server endpoint.
