Cypress - File Operations

Which of the following is the correct way to read the contents of a file named log.txt using Cypress?

Acy.readFile('log.txt').getContent()

Bcy.readFile('log.txt', (content) => { /* use content */ })

Ccy.readFile('log.txt').then((content) => { /* use content */ })

Dcy.readFile('log.txt').read()

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Recall the syntax
The correct syntax uses then() to handle the promise returned by cy.readFile().
Step 2: Analyze options
cy.readFile('log.txt').then((content) => { /* use content */ }) correctly chains then() with a callback. Options B, C, and D use invalid syntax or methods.
Final Answer:
cy.readFile('log.txt').then((content) => { /* use content */ }) -> Option C
Quick Check:
Use then() to access file content asynchronously [OK]

Quick Trick: Always use .then() to handle readFile results [OK]
