cypress-sitemap-urls v1.0.0

A Cypress command allowing to retrieve all the URLs of a sitemap.xml document. Widely inspired by the according Cypress example.

Why?

When building websites that are highly dynamic because of the use of a CMS to generate pages, it may be complex to define how to test them. This plugin allows to retrieve all the urls available in the website's sitemap.xml in order to run tests on them. For instance, it can be used to run an axe audit on every single page inside the sitemap.xml file.

Installation

$ yarn add cypress-sitemap-urls

# or

$ npm i cypress-sitemap-urls

In your code

Inside the cypress/support/commands.js file, add the following at the top:

import "cypress-sitemap-urls";

And then, in your cypress tests:

it("shoots axe on every page in the sitemap", () => {
  cy.siteMapUrls("https://mfrachet.github.io/sitemap/sitemap-0.xml").then(
    (urls) => {
      urls.forEach((url) => {
        cy.visit(url);
        cy.injectAxe();
        cy.checkA11y();
      });
    }
  );
});
