cy-ai

Cypress AI

🧪 Cypress AI command that generates E2E tests with LLM (Large Language Model):

cy.ai(string)

Read the wiki.

Prerequisites

Install

NPM:

npm install cy-ai --save-dev

Yarn:

yarn add cy-ai --dev

Usage

If you're using TypeScript, import the command using ES2015 syntax:

echo "import 'cy-ai'" >> cypress/support/commands.ts

Or if you're using JavaScript, use CommonJS require:

echo "require('cy-ai')" >> cypress/support/commands.js

Start the Ollama server:

ollama serve

Download the LLM:

ollama pull qwen2.5-coder

Write a test:

// cypress/e2e/example.cy.js
it('visits example.com', () => {
  cy.visit('/')
  cy.ai('see heading "Example Domain"')
})

Tip

If you're running Chrome, disable chromeWebSecurity so the LLM requests aren't blocked by CORS:

// cypress.config.js
import { defineConfig } from 'cypress'

export default defineConfig({
  chromeWebSecurity: false,
})

cy.ai

Generate Cypress tests with AI:

cy.ai(string[, options])

llm

LangChain Runnable to invoke. Defaults to a prompt template using the Ollama model qwen2.5-coder.

Use a different large language model:

import { Ollama } from '@langchain/ollama'
import { prompt } from 'cy-ai'

const llm = new Ollama({
  model: 'codellama',
  numCtx: 16384,
})

const chain = prompt.pipe(llm)

cy.ai('prompt', { llm: chain })

Or customize the template:

import { PromptTemplate } from '@langchain/core/prompts'
import { Ollama } from '@langchain/ollama'

const llm = new Ollama({
  model: 'codellama',
  numCtx: 16384,
})

const prompt = PromptTemplate.fromTemplate(`
You are writing an E2E test step with Cypress.

Rules:
1. Return JavaScript Cypress code without "describe" and "it".

Task: {task}

HTML:
\`\`\`html
{html}
\`\`\`
`)

const chain = prompt.pipe(llm)

cy.ai('prompt', { llm: chain })

Important

Don't forget to pull the Ollama model:

ollama pull codellama

log

Whether to display the command logs. Defaults to true:

cy.ai('prompt', { log: true })

Hide Cypress and console logs:

cy.ai('prompt', { log: false })

regenerate

Whether to regenerate the Cypress step with AI. Defaults to false:

cy.ai('prompt', { regenerate: false })

Regenerate the Cypress step with AI:

cy.ai('prompt', { regenerate: true })

timeout

Time to wait in milliseconds. Defaults to 2 minutes:

cy.ai('prompt', { timeout: 120000 })

Set timeout to 5 minutes:

cy.ai('prompt', { timeout: 1000 * 60 * 5 })

cy.aiConfig

Configure global options for cy.ai:

cy.aiConfig(options)

options

Override default options:

cy.aiConfig({
  llm: chain,
  log: false,
  regenerate: true,
  timeout: 1000 * 60 * 3, // 3 minutes
})
