如何在赛普拉斯中使用模块“fs”？

Question

I want to import JSON data from my local repository.

var fs = require('fs');
var data = fs.readFileSync('./profile.json', 'utf8');
console.log(data);

...

However Cypress occurs this error:

Here is my package.json from my cypress project.

{
  "name": "cypress_test",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",

    "generate-report": "npx mochawesome-report-generator --reportDir cypress/reports cypress/reports/full_report.json",
    "after:tests": "npm run merge-report; npm run generate-report",

  },

  },

    "@babel/preset-env": "^7.11.0",
    "babel-loader": "^8.1.0",
    "webpack": "^4.44.1"
  }
}

I don't want to use cy.fixture because I need to use data from json in my 'it test discription'. For example, I want to make tests like this.

it (datas.data, ()=>{
   ...
})

Answer 1

You should be able to load your profile.json with the require statement.

const data = require('profile.json');

Answer 2

To use fs, or various other Node modules, you must put it in a plugin. From https://docs.cypress.io/guides/core-concepts/writing-and-organizing-tests#Plugins-file :

While the Cypress tests execute in the browser, the plugins file runs in the background Node process, giving your tests the ability to access the file system and the rest of the operating system by calling the cy.task() command

This is alluded to in the comments above, but I missed it there so I want to make it clear.
