cypress-skip-this-test

Skips the current test if it depends on the previous failed test

Install

$ npm i -D cypress-skip-this-test
# or using Yarn
$ yarn add -D cypress-skip-this-test

Import the `` in the specs with tests that depend on each other

import { skipIfPreviousTestsFailed } from 'cypress-skip-this-test'

describe('Parent suite', () => {
  // second test fails on purpose
  // and the third test should skip
  beforeEach(skipIfPreviousTestsFailed)

  it('test 1', () => {})

  it('test 2', () => {
    throw new Error('fail on purpose')
  })

  it('test 3', () => {})
})

The "test 3" will be skipped when the test "test 2" fails. If all tests in the parent suite before "test 3" pass successfully, then the test will run.
