cy.route: wait on alias does not contain all requests

[Konstruktour]

Current behavior:

In the following code example an "listener" is added to the api/test route and after a duration of 5 seconds it waits until the route has been called. During the 5 seconds multiple (non-deterministic) calls to the route are triggered, but the alias @getTest only contains the xhr of the first request.

cy.visit('/');
cy.server();
cy.route('GET', 'api/test').as('getTest');
cy.wait(5000);
cy.wait('@getTest')
    .then((xhr) => {
        console.log(xhr);
     });

Desired behavior:

Expected behaviour would be that the alias @getTest contains an array of the fired requests.
Either I did not find any solution for that or it is not (yet) implemented?

A single cy.wait() will only wait for a single response. To wait for multiple requests, you would need to define multiple cy.wait() commands.

In order to access all responses of a single alias, you can use the undocumented .all property. For example:

cy.wait('@getTest.all')
  .should("have.length", 2)
  .then((xhrs) => {
    console.log(xhrs);
});

Hi @jennifer-shehane Can you give full example for this?

@nvkhanh08t4 Please check the docs.

Docs for the usage of .all syntax can be found here. It’s not officially documented because the API may change in the future. cypress-io/cypress-documentation#1573
