Cypress - Authentication and Sessions

You want to write a Cypress test that saves a token in local storage, reloads the page, and then verifies the token is still present. Which sequence of commands correctly achieves this?

Acy.window().then(win => win.localStorage.setItem('token', 'abc123')); cy.reload(); cy.window().then(win => expect(win.localStorage.getItem('token')).to.equal('abc123'));

Bcy.setLocalStorage('token', 'abc123'); cy.reload(); cy.getLocalStorage('token').should('equal', 'abc123');

Ccy.window().then(win => win.localStorage.setItem('token', 'abc123')); cy.reload(); cy.window().its('localStorage.token').should('equal', 'abc123');

Dcy.window().then(win => win.localStorage.clear()); cy.reload(); cy.window().its('localStorage.token').should('be.null');

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Save token in localStorage correctly
Using cy.window().then(win => win.localStorage.setItem('token', 'abc123')) correctly sets the token.
Step 2: Reload and verify token presence
After cy.reload(), accessing localStorage via cy.window().then and asserting with expect ensures token is still 'abc123'.
Step 3: Evaluate other options
cy.window().then(win => win.localStorage.setItem('token', 'abc123')); cy.reload(); cy.window().its('localStorage.token').should('equal', 'abc123'); uses incorrect property access for localStorage token; cy.setLocalStorage('token', 'abc123'); cy.reload(); cy.getLocalStorage('token').should('equal', 'abc123'); uses non-existent commands; cy.window().then(win => win.localStorage.clear()); cy.reload(); cy.window().its('localStorage.token').should('be.null'); clears storage and checks for null, which is not the goal.
Final Answer:
Use cy.window() to set, reload, then check with expect -> Option A
Quick Check:
Set, reload, then assert with cy.window() and expect [OK]

Quick Trick: Set token, reload, then check with cy.window() and expect [OK]

Common Mistakes:

Using wrong localStorage property access
Using non-existent Cypress commands
Clearing storage instead of verifying token
