Cypress - Component Testing

Examine the following Cypress test code:

import { mount } from '@cypress/react';
function TextInput() {
  return <input placeholder='Enter text' />;
}
describe('TextInput test', () => {
  it('checks placeholder', () => {
    mount(TextInput);
    cy.get('input').should('have.attr', 'placeholder', 'Enter text');
  });
});

What is the error in this code?

AThe component should be mounted as <TextInput /> instead of TextInput

BThe import statement for mount is incorrect

CThe selector 'input' in cy.get() is invalid

DThe placeholder attribute cannot be tested with should()

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check mount usage
mount() expects a JSX element, so mount(TextInput) is incorrect.
Step 2: Correct syntax
It should be mount(<TextInput />) to render the component.
Final Answer:
The component should be mounted as <TextInput /> instead of TextInput -> Option A
Quick Check:
mount() requires JSX element, not function reference [OK]

Quick Trick: Use JSX syntax when mounting components [OK]

Common Mistakes:

Passing component function instead of JSX
Incorrect import path for mount
Misusing cy.get() selectors
