cypress-drag-drop

A cypress child command for drag'n'drop support.

Setup

Install using npm:

npm install --save-dev @4tw/cypress-drag-drop

or yarn

yarn add --dev @4tw/cypress-drag-drop

Before Cypress is loaded (usually in your commands.js) put the following line:

require('@4tw/cypress-drag-drop')

Or, if you are using ES module syntax:

import '@4tw/cypress-drag-drop'

This will register the drag command.

Usage

The drag command is a child command. The command only accepts elements. As the drop target simply pass a selector as string.

In your cypress spec use the command as follows:

describe('Dragtest', () => {
  it('should dragndrop', () => {
    cy.visit('/yourpage')

    cy.get('.sourceitem').drag('.targetitem')
  })
})

Options

The second argument of the .drag command is an object containing options.

describe('Dragtest', () => {
  it('should dragndrop', () => {
    cy.visit('/yourpage')

    cy.get('.sourceitem').drag('.targetitem', options)
  })
})

position

Decide at which position the element should be dropped.

Possible values are topLeft, top, topRight, left, center, right, bottomLeft, bottom, and bottomRight.

The default position is top.

force

Force the drag'n'drop interaction. Meaning that the grabbing, moving and dropping is forced. See https://docs.cypress.io/guides/core-concepts/interacting-with-elements.html#Forcing for more information.

Development

The plugin itselt is implemented in the index.js file.

Testing

The tests can be run using cyress:

yarn test

The test fixtures are under src/examples/. Using the setExample cypress command the fixture is loaded and ready to run tests on. The first attribute in the setExample command is the name of the fixture which needs to be the filename of the component.

cy.setExample('NameOfTheComponent')
