cy.type() on input[type='number'] prepends text to current value instead of appending

[jennifer-shehane]

When I use the command cy.type() on a DOM element of input[type='number'] the text entered prepends to any existing value in the input instead of appending (as cy.type() does on input[type='text'] and textarea.

Example

<input name="height" type="number" value="25">

cy.get("input[name='height']").type("167").should("have.value", "25167")

This example's assertion will fail and say expected input to have value of '25167', but got '16725'

This will be fixed in the next release. input[type=number] does not support el.selectionStart (the caret) which is why this was happening.

Fixed in 0.8.0
