Missing step details for previous tests
Hello team, I have configured the allure report successfully with my setup. I used version conf as below. Cypress: 12.5.1 After executing my test case. I am getting results for 2nd method, not for the first method. TestBody of the first method is overridden by the second method's tc. Please help to resolve this issue with the allure report.

Hi @Sheth90 Please provide an example repo where such issue could be reproduced.
I see several reporter dependencies (mochawesome, cypress-multi-reporters, mocha-allure-reporter, cypress-allure-plugin), thus I am questioning they are properly set up.
mocha-allure-reporter for example was not working for cypress (it was the exact reason for creating this plugin) so I am not sure if it is working now properly.
From this what you want to remove? And what is your suggestion?

@Sheth90, I am not suggesting to remove anything right now. I am asking you to provide example tiny repository to see your setup and ways to reproduce it. Maybe you have a mix of sync\async code or some specific setup - I have no idea.

Thanks for example.
- You have duplicated
setupNodeEventsincypress.config.js:
e2e: {
- // you don't have `cypress/plugins/index.js` - so no need in requiring non-existing file:
- setupNodeEvents(on, config) {
- return require('./cypress/plugins/index.js')(on, config)
- },
baseUrl: 'https://stagingsamsunggrubbrrqa.azurewebsites.net/',
specPattern: 'cypress/e2e/**/*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}',
setupNodeEvents(on, config) {
allureWriter(on, config);
return config;
},
-
you don't need
allureReuseAfterSpecas you do not have cucumber or plugins that utilizeafter:specevent. -
mocha-allure-reporteris not used anywhere -
in
package.jsonyourallure:clearbasically generates new report in allure-results, and I don't get the idea what is the purpose. Then you try to generate allure report based on another report in allure-results? -
In
allure-reportI see test with same nameBackend Settings for override moidifiers-Actual flag is disabled on main section of modifier-See flag of Show On Kioskwith status "skipped" and status "passed". It makes sense to clear previous results.
I did changes as you suggested. Still same problem. Please find below the code link for the same. For point number 5, every time the allure report is coming as a duplicate. Not comes with a proper tc result hence I need to clear the allure-result folder at the start of the script execution and once execution is completed then I need to fire a command to generate a report.

@Sheth90 Thanks for example provided. I can reproduce it and confirm that it relates to #179 .
Why it works that way and looses steps:
- in
cypress.config.jsyou have "baseUrl": "OneUrl" - Cypress, and later Allure are initialized for "OneUrl"
- in test you do
visit("SecondUrl"), which is from another domain - Cypress refreshes the page and clears all state to prepare opening new domain
- Allure is initialized fresh and clean for "SecondUrl", keeping trace of tests (because mocha runner has that info), but have no idea what steps were executed, as that info was cleared from browser window while visiting other domain.
Kind of workaround: if we remove baseUrl, we would see all tests with steps, as browser state is not cleared between domains (because there is no domain change). As for the proper solution - I have not found yet the mechanism how to persist or pass old Allure instance to other superdomain.
Hi @Sheth90
As #179 is resolved in v2.38.3, I think your case should also be fixed as well.
Please check it on your end.
@Shelex how to update allure report to the desire version at v2.38.3? I did the below changes in package.json, but still the result is not coming properly.

@Sheth90 That means your specific case was not covered or covered just partially thus requires further investigation.
However, I can confirm that when I used cypress-parallel sometimes some of the results were empty, but not reproduced for me while using just cypress run - that is still in progress.
