Seeding Your Database in Node

This recipe demonstrates two things:

  • Seeding your database with node.js using cy.task()
  • Using ES modules import/export syntax in your plugins

Seeding your database

If you use Node.js for your app, you can re-use your app code to help set up and manipulate data for your tests. In this example, we utilize cy.task() to connect with node via the pluginsFile to re-use the server/db.js and seed the database.

Using ES modules in plugins

You can not use import/export directly in your pluginsFile, but you can wrap it so that any subsequently required files can utilize import/export and any other syntax that is configured in your .babelrc.
