vscode-extension-open-cypress README

Allows you to open cypress specs and single it() blocks

https://github.com/tnrich/vscode-extension-open-cypress

cypressOpen

Usage

Running a single file

In a spec file open the cmd palette (cmd+p) and type "Run Cypress"

Running a single it blockl

In a spec file, place your cursor on an it() block line and open the cmd palette (cmd+p) and type "Run Cypress Single It Block"

Todo:

Eventually I'd like this extension to be able to

  • not just open but also be able to AUTOMATICALLY run a spec file (requires cypress team to add a way to make all specs run upon open or a single spec run on open)
  • cypress team should add a way to grep to run a single it block IMO (that way the file itself doesn't need to be modified)
  • open terminal in cypress root folder
