Release Date: 2021-11-02 // over 2 years ago

  • ✨ Enhancements

    ✅ Global Test and Fixture Hooks

    📚 You can now specify global test and fixture hooks. TestCafe attaches these hooks to every test / fixture in the test suite.

    module.exports = {
    hooks: {
        fixture: {
            before: async (ctx) => {
                // your code
            },
            after: async (ctx) => {
                // your code
            }
        },
        test: {
            before: async (t) => {
                // your code
            },
            after: async (t) => {
                // your code
            }
        }
    }
};

    Execution Timeouts

    📚 You can now specify custom timeouts for tests and test runs. If a test/test run is idle or unresponsive for the specified length of time, TestCafe terminates it. Specify these timeouts in the configuration file or from the command line.

    💻 Command line interface

    testcafe chrome my-tests --test-execution-timeout 180000
testcafe chrome my-tests --run-execution-timeout 180000

    🔧 Configuration file

    {
    "runExecutionTimeout": 180000,
    "testExecutionTimeout": 180000
}

    🐛 Bug Fixes

    • ✅ TestCafe fails to continue the test after the user downloads a file. (#6242).
    • ✅ The TestCafe proxy does not fire the "unpipe" event when necessary. This omission leads to the "This socket has been ended by the other party" error (#6558).
    • ✅ TestCafe incorrectly handles rewritten uninitialized iframes (testcafe-hammerhead/#2694, testcafe-hammerhead/#2693).
