Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to assert the request method is GET.

Cypress

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'equals' or 'equal' instead of 'eq' causes assertion failure.

Using 'is' is not a valid Cypress assertion.

The should('eq', 'GET') assertion checks that the request method equals 'GET'.

medium

Complete the code to assert the response status code is 200.

Cypress

cy.intercept('/api/data').as('getData');
cy.wait('@getData').its('response.statusCode').should('[1]', 200);

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'equals' or 'equal' instead of 'eq' causes assertion failure.

Using 'be' alone is not sufficient for equality check.

The should('eq', 200) assertion checks that the response status code equals 200.

hard

Fix the error in the code to assert the request URL includes '/api/data'.

Cypress

cy.intercept('/api/data').as('getData');
cy.wait('@getData').its('request.url').should('[1]', '/api/data');

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'contain' or 'contains' causes assertion failure.

Using 'includes' is not a valid Cypress assertion.

The correct Cypress assertion to check if a string includes a substring is should('include', substring).

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to assert the request headers contain 'content-type' and its value is 'application/json'.

Cypress

cy.intercept('/api/data').as('getData');
cy.wait('@getData').its('request.headers.[1]').should('[2]', 'application/json');

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Acontent-type

Beq

Cequal

DcontentType

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'contentType' instead of 'content-type' causes failure.

Using 'equal' instead of 'eq' causes assertion failure.

The header key is 'content-type' and the assertion to check equality is should('eq', value).

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to assert the response body has a property 'success' that is true.

Cypress

cy.intercept('/api/data').as('getData');
cy.wait('@getData').its('response.body.[1]').should('[2]', [3]);

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Asuccess

Beq

Ctrue

Dbe

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'eq' with 'true' as string causes failure.

Using 'true' without quotes is correct here because it's a boolean.

We check the 'success' property with should('be', true) to assert it is true.
