DEBUG_PRINT_LIMIT env var appears to have no effect #225

Open Joe-Withey opened 2 years ago

Joe-Withey commented 2 years ago

Relevant code or config

DEBUG_PRINT_LIMIT=1000000 cypress run

What you did:

Trying to use the DEBUG_PRINT_LIMIT variable in the testing library documentation to show the whole dom when a selector fails.

What happened:

DEBUG_PRINT_LIMIT stayed at the default level

Suggested solution:

Could we check that this library supports the DEBUG_PRINT_LIMIT variable?

I've noticed the same issue. I also tried with env property inside cypress.config.ts

Also have noticed this, dumping out the whole DOM isn't incredibly useful for me and this seems to be the only way to limit that DOM output on find failure

If you are using vite with cypress, vite does not automatically compile process.env into your compiled test output. Since in cypress everything, including this lib, is basically compiled and executed in the browser it is subject to your compilers env definitions so I'd guess most likely anyone with this problem probably has an issue in their build compiler settings. You have to do this for vite:

define: {
      "process.env.DEBUG_PRINT_LIMIT": 10000
    }

In vite config
