Failed to execute 'scrollTo' on 'Window': No function was found that matched the signature provided.

It seems like the combo of Cypress/Electron doesn’t like:

window.scrollTo({
   behavior: 'smooth',
   top: 0,
})

as I get this error:

Failed to execute 'scrollTo' on 'Window': No function was found that matched the signature provided.

To get around this, I’m currently doing:

try {
  window.scroll({
    behavior: 'smooth',
    top: 0,
  })
} catch(err) {
  if (err instanceof TypeError) {
    window.scroll(0, 0)
  } else {
    throw err
  }
}

Current behavior:

Failed to execute 'scrollTo' on 'Window': No function was found that matched the signature provided.

This error originated from your application code, not from Cypress.

When Cypress detects uncaught errors originating from your application it will automatically fail the current test.

This behavior is configurable, and you can choose to turn this off by listening to the 'uncaught:exception' event.

Desired behavior:

Similar behavior to Chrome—work without error.

Steps to reproduce:

Run a headless test on code that has the following:

window.scrollTo({
   behavior: 'smooth',
   top: 0,
})

The issue was closed by the original person who opened this. We can reopen until newer version of Electron is released.

Electron was updated to Chrome 61 in Cypress version 3.3.0 and this issue should be fixed.
