DeploySentinel Cypress Recorder Plugin

Create Cypress tests scripts within the Cypress test browser by simply interacting with your application, similar to the previous Cypress Studio functionality previously available in Cypress v9. This plugin will allow you to translate clicks, inputs, and other events into a Cypress script.

Built on top of the DeploySentinel Recorder Browser Extension.

Plugin only works for Cypress v10, not with v9 and below, currently compatible with Chrome and Firefox

Get Started

Install the plugin

npm install -D @deploysentinel/cypress-recorder

OR

yarn add --dev @deploysentinel/cypress-recorder

Add Plugin to Cypress Config

Add the plugin to your cypress.config.js file:

const { defineConfig } = require("cypress");

module.exports = defineConfig({
  e2e: {
    setupNodeEvents(on, config) {
      // Add plugin import here 👇
      require("@deploysentinel/cypress-recorder")(on, config);
    },
  },
});

Use the Recorder

Run Cypress in open mode, select a spec to run, and then click "Record" button on the top left of the test application panel to start recording.
