The event "Network Request" is taking place with object -ios

[chamile]

Description

I have a Sign-in button that it calls an API. So whan I run await element(by.text('Sign in')).tap();

it navigates to the corresponding page after calling the API request but the test hangs and waits without completing the test.

Code

/* eslint-disable no-undef */
const { execSync } = require('child_process');

const OPTIONS = {
  timeout: 10000,
  killSignal: 'SIGKILL',
};
describe('screenshot', () => {
  beforeAll(async () => {
    await device.launchApp();
  });

  beforeEach(async () => {
    await device.reloadReactNative();
  });

  it('should take screenshot', async () => {
    const fileName = 'screenshot.png';

    if (device.getPlatform() === 'android') {
      execSync(`adb shel screencap /sdcard/${fileName}`);
      execSync(
        `adb pull /sdcard/${fileName} $(pwd)/android/fastlane/metadata/android/en-US/images/phoneScreenshots`
      );
    } else {
      execSync(
        `xcrun simctl io booted screenshot $(pwd)/fastlane/screenshots/screenshot.png`,
        OPTIONS
      );
      await element(by.text('Show more options')).tap();
      execSync(
        `xcrun simctl io booted screenshot $(pwd)/fastlane/screenshots/screenshot1.png`,
        OPTIONS
      );
      await element(by.text('Username & Password')).tap();
      execSync(
        `xcrun simctl io booted screenshot $(pwd)/fastlane/screenshots/screenshot2.png`,
        OPTIONS
      );
      await element(by.id('testID-userName')).typeText('test');
      await element(by.id('testID-password')).typeText('test');
      execSync(
        `xcrun simctl io booted screenshot $(pwd)/fastlane/screenshots/screenshot3.png`,
        OPTIONS
      );
      await element(by.text('Sign in')).tap();
    }
  });
});

@chamile you need to look into why that network request doesn't get replied to.

On a different matter, have you considered using Detox's API for taking screenshots?

Damn, I'm running into this same issue, @chamile you ever figure this one out?

[johanndeswardt]

I'm also having issues with this.

detoxURLBlacklistRegex and setURLBlacklist do not seem to actually do anything. My tests are not running because synchronization is being prevented because of in-flight requests to Launch Darkly.

[asafkorem]

@johanndeswardt Could you please copy here the setURLBlacklist call you've tried?

[asafkorem]

or the launch-app command with the detoxURLBlacklistRegex argument

Hey, i've just came across this issue while trying to implement detox on our app

The event "Network Request" is taking place with object: "URL: “https://clientstream.launchdarkly.com/meval/****”".
• Run loop "Main Run Loop" is awake.

any ideas on how to solve it?

[menttys]

Exactly the same issue as @OrLevy23, any findings about it?

[NicholasBoccuzzi]

@OrLevy23 @menttys -- did either of you figure this out using a Launch Darkly link?

[d4vidi]

@OrLevy23 @NicholasBoccuzzi @menttys @chamile Please allow for testing out this new release with a related fix - https://github.com/wix/Detox/releases/tag/20.3.0

I am still getting this error in the updated detox version ("detox": "^20.5.0")

The app is busy with the following tasks: • Run loop "Main Run Loop" is awake. • The event "Network Request" is taking place with object: "URL: “https://api-dev.gigflex.com:8088/socket/347/oxxy2uxi/xhr_streaming?t=1679374217817”". • There are 1 work items pending on the dispatch queue: "Main Queue ()". • The event "Network Request" is taking place with object: "URL: “https://api-dev.gigflex.com:8088/socket/501/o2tr5ber/xhr_streaming?t=1679374218301”".

it('should have login screen', async () => {

    await expect(element(by.id('login-container'))).toBeVisible();

`

and it ends with error

Does anyone have any idea how can i resolve this? @d4vidi @mgithubmessier @menttys @OrLevy23 @chamile

[nikolal]

I have the same issue:

detoxURLBlacklistRegex and setURLBlacklist do not seem to actually do anything.

The event "Network Request" is taking place with object: "URL: “https://data.emb-api.com/v1/log/events”".

I tried:

await device.setURLBlacklist(['.*data.emb-api.com.*'])

and

beforeAll(async () => {
  await device.launchApp({
    launchArgs: {
      detoxURLBlacklistRegex: getDetoxURLBlacklistRegexFromDomains(domains),
    },
  })
})

const domains = [
  'data.emb-api.com'
]

const getDetoxURLBlacklistRegexFromDomains = domains =>
  '(' + domains.map(domain => `\\".*${domain}.*\\"`).join(',') + ')'

"detox": "^20.6.0",

[gmferraz]

Same issue as @OrLevy23. Any news?

[vm-agnislav]

We have the same issue with LaunchDarkly on the latest detox version. Any updates on it? @d4vidi

[KaterinaUK]

@d4vidi Can I please ask to reopen this issue? Many people still have the same problem! Even after trying what was suggested.

[zfolwick]

I just had this same issue:

• The event "Network Request" is taking place with object: "URL: “https://clients3.google.com/generate_204?_=1701807425591”".

I rarely restart my simulators, so running ps -ef | grep detox showed a process that appeared to have gone stale. I killed the process with kill 42843 and re-ran the tests and that seemed to have fixed it. See below (note the "??" indicating even the OS has forgotten how long it's been around).

[SwetaTanwar]

I was able to make it work by using detoxURLBlacklistRegex in launchArgs. Make sure to properly pass the url

beforeAll(async () => {
    await device.launchApp({
      newInstance: true,
      launchArgs: {
        detoxURLBlacklistRegex:
          '\\("^https://yourURL.com/*"\\)',
      },
    });
});

[yusinto]

We use this internally and should work:

  beforeAll(async () => {
    await device.launchApp({
      newInstance: true,
      launchArgs: {
        detoxURLBlacklistRegex: '\\("^https://clientstream.launchdarkly.com/meval"\\)',
      },
    });
  });

[dominictobias]

We use this internally and should work:

  beforeAll(async () => {
    await device.launchApp({
      newInstance: true,
      launchArgs: {
        detoxURLBlacklistRegex: '\\("^https://clientstream.launchdarkly.com/meval"\\)',
      },
    });
  });

Life saver. I don't get how they made LD network requests so problematic. They also break Android entirely at least on the simulator :/
