Cypress Contract Stubs

Npm Github Action Cypress Jest Codecov

The cypress-contract-stubs add support for using Spring Cloud Contract Stub entries when testing with Cypress. This plugin can download artifacts from nexus and nexus3 artifact repositories and cache them locally. Provide commands to automatically intercept application requests with stubs matched without the need of using the stub runner server.

Get started

Installation

Install the plugin by running:

npm install --save-dev cypress-contract-stubs

Plugin configuration

Add it to your plugin file: cypress/plugins/index.js

const { contractStubsPlugin } = require('cypress-contract-stubs');

module.exports = async (on, config) => {
  await contractStubsPlugin(on, config);
  
  return config;
}

Add configuration for remote and local stubs to your cypress.json file.

The default mode is remote and the default type is nexus3. You can also configure default stub server and repository for the artifacts.

{
  "env": {
    "stubs_server": "http://nexus3.proxy.internal",
    "stubs_repository": "maven-releases",
    "stubs": [
      {
        "id": "internal.contracts:artifact-name:+:stubs"
      },
      {
        "mode": "remote",
        "id": "internal.contracts:artifact-name:+:stubs",
        "type": "nexus",
        "server": "http://nexus.proxy.internal",
        "repository": "releases"
      },
      {
        "mode": "local",
        "file": "artifact-name-1.318-SNAPSHOT-stubs.jar"
      },
      {
        "mode": "local",
        "file": "artifact-name-stubs.jar",
        "path": "cypress/fixtures"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Note: The plugin will download the latest artifact version if the + or latest is added to the stubs id coordinate

Commands configuration

Add it to your support file: cypress/support/index.js

import 'cypress-contract-stubs/commands';

In your test files, will be available the following commands:

  • cy.interceptStubs Intercept network requests with matched stubs
  • cy.contractStubs Get all available stub entries
  • cy.contractStub Get stub entry by options (if more stubs match the criteria will be returned the first occurrence)
cy.interceptStubs();
cy.contractStubs().then((stubs) => console.log(stubs));
cy.contractStub({ name: 'stubName' }).then((stub) => console.log(stub));

Intercept network request

Automatic intercept

To automatically intercept network requests use:

cy.interceptStubs(); // Intercept all stub requests
cy.interceptStubs({ names: ['stubNameA', 'stubNameB'] }); // Intercept stub requests filtered by names

cy.visit('/')

The command setup an intercept for each stub present with the syntax defined in WireMock documentation

Manual intercept

To manually intercept network request use:

cy.contractStub({ name: 'stubName' }).then((stub) => {
  const { name, request, response } = stub;
  
  cy.intercept(request.url, (req) => {
    req.reply(response.status, response.body, response.headers)
  }).as(name);
});

cy.visit('/')

Debug

Set an environment variable DEBUG=cypress:stubs:* to log all stubs plugin operations.

Check the Cypress documentation for more info about printing debug logs.
