赛普拉斯 e2e 测试与 Angular 材料垫选择不能设置 select 值

Question

I am trying to set a mat-option value with a Cypress test in Angular 9. I have tried all of the following workarounds below and none of them work. I am using Angular Material and the mat-select component with dynamic ngFor mat-options. The selector works fine but I can't set it or get the click to work correctly on the mat-select.

Example mat-select I am using

<div fxLayout="row" fxLayoutAlign="space-between">
  <mat-form-field>
    <mat-label>Begin Year</mat-label>
    <mat-select formControlName="beginYear" data-cy="beginYear-select">
      <mat-option *ngFor="let year of beginYearOptions" [value]="year">
        {{ year }}
      </mat-option>
    </mat-select>
  </mat-form-field>

failed attempts to get the click set

cy.get('[data-cy=beginYear-select]').contains(yearValue.toString()).click();

or

cy.get('mat-select').first().click({ force: true }).get('mat-option').contains(yearValue.toString()).click()

or

cy.get('mat-select[formcontrolname="beginYear"]').first().click().get('mat-option').contains(yearValue.toString()).click();

or

cy.get('mat-select[formcontrolname="beginYear"]').then(() => {
      cy.get('mat-option').contains(endYear.toString()).click();
      })

or

Cypress.Commands.add('selectMaterialDropDown', (formControlName, selectOption) => {
  cy.get(`[formcontrolname="${formControlName}"]`).click().then(() => {
    cy.get(`.cdk-overlay-container .mat-select-panel .mat-option-text`).should('contain', selectOption);
    console.log('PASSED!!!')
    cy.get(`.cdk-overlay-container .mat-select-panel .mat-option-text:contains("${selectOption}")`).first().click().then(() => {
      // After click, mat-select should contain the text of the selected option
      cy.get(`[formcontrolname="${formControlName}"]`).contains(selectOption);
    });
  });
});

None of these worked and basically threw an error saying mat-option can't be found. Most of the time the mat-select popup did not even appear after the click event. I have also tried adding wait calls to see if it was an async issue but the same thing happened. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have attached some references below that I have also tried. I am confused why the popup does not appear consistently from mat-select on a click event and if it does it can't find any options.

Answer 1

I think you need to pass '#' before mat-select to properly select it by it's id. Every mat-select is like a input, so in most cases it will be something like "mat-select-1", "mat-select-2"... and so on. I made it work by first clicking my mat-select than clicking an option from that select.

cy.get('#mat-select-1').click()
cy.get('#mat-option-2').click()

Althrough I just didn't make it work with select() from cypress, this was a workaround.

Answer 2

Try this:

cy.get('mat-select[data-cy="beginYear-select"]').contains(yearValue.toString()).click();

If it doesn't work try to remove "-" in the identifier: beginYearSelect

Answer 3

Had a similar issue and had to get around it like this:

cy.get('[data-cy=beginYear-select]')
  .click()
  .get('mat-option')
  .contains('2021')
  .click();
cy.get('body').click();
