Cypress Quick Tip: Loops

If you want to loop over a set of items, you can create an array of objects, use wrapping and each to chew through your items. Sweet!

describe('Test items', () => {
    it('Filters items', () => {
      const filters = [
        {link: 'FooFoo', expectedLength: 2},
        {link: 'BarbBar', expectedLength: 2},
        {link: 'BazBaz', expectedLength: 4}
        ]
  cy.triggerFixtureAndOpenPage('fixture:wholebunchofitems')
  cy.wrap(filters)
    .each(filters => {
  cy.contains(filter.link).click()
  cy.get('.foo li').should('have.length', filter.expectedLength)
    })
  })
})
