msw-cypress v1.2.0

msw-cypress

Introduction

This library came from a need to be able to mock msw handler for particular case or to be able to wait for them to complete. It sets Cypress interceptors to mock rest & graphql handlers + to wait for them

How to install

npm install msw-cypress --save-dev
# or
yarn add --dev msw-cypress

This library requires cypress and msw as peer dependencies

How to use it

Creating the msw service worker for Cypress

Default msw service worker won't work with Cypress, so you need to init one with msw-cypress.

npx msw-cypress init <path>

Creating cypress commands

In cypress/support/index.js

import { createCommands } from 'msw-cypress';
import { handlers } from 'path/to/your/handlers';

createCommands({ handlers });

Typescript users

msw-cypress provide types for the commands created.

In cypress/tsconfig.json

You can add msw-cypress/commands to your cypress/tsconfig.json file (example file from Cypress typescript docs).

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es5",
    "lib": ["es5", "dom"],
    "types": ["cypress", "msw-cypress/commands"]
  },
  "include": [
    "**/*.ts",
    "../src/mocks/handlers.ts"
  ]
}

Or you can add a reference to the top of each file in which you're using the commands (/// <reference types="msw-cypress/commands" />)

// my-file.spec.ts
/// <reference types="msw-cypress/commands" />

describe('...', () => {
  cy.mswRestIntercept(/* ... */);
  // ...
})
