Weird error after initial setup

cy.readFile() must be passed a non-empty string as its 1st argument. You passed: 146.Learn more

This happens after finishing setup and trying to run a sample test.

This is in my command that I use to login:

    .then((url) => {
      cy.intercept('api/users/user/profile/').as('login');
      cy.visit(url);
      cy.wait('@login');
      cy.injectAxe();
    }),

Error happens on the cy.injectAxe() line.

Thanks!

I was able to work around this by creating my own injectAxe method in my tests.

const injectAxe = () => {
  //cy.injectAxe();
  // cy.injectAxe is currently broken. https://github.com/component-driven/cypress-axe/issues/82

  // Creating our own injection logic
  cy.readFile('../../node_modules/axe-core/axe.min.js').then((source) => {
    return cy.window({ log: false }).then((window) => {
        window.eval(source);
    });
  });
};

Then instead of calling cy.injectAxe(), I call my own method to inject the script.

Yes, this issue still exists with the latest version, we tried calling our own method to inject the script.

const injectAxe = () => {

cy.readFile(‘…/…/node_modules/axe-core/axe.min.js’).then((source) => { return cy.window({ log: false }).then((window) => { window.eval(source); }); }); };
