Error when there are test failures

[jayakannanj]

Hello All,

Wanted to check if anyone has come across this before. I have cypress cloud configured to run in CI. Whenever there are test failures I get the following error at the end of the test run hence I am unable to extract the dashboard URL to output in our internal report channel. Would appreciate your help. Thanks

You may get better results if you update Cypress.

build.yml contains

          echo "::set-output name=CYPRESS_DASHBOARD_URL::$URL"

cypress-cloud-exec.js contains:

const execSync = require('child_process').execSync;
const key = process.env.CYPRESS_RECORD_KEY;
execSync(`cypress run --record --key ${key} --browser chrome`, { stdio: 'inherit' });

I don't see the definition of cypress:execution-cloud in your posted files, and I assume it is calling the JavaScript program. If so, this seems like a convoluted way of calling Cypress when there are simpler standard ways to do this. Of course I may not have fully understood your needs, but I suggest you consider standard alternatives:

Alternatives

cypress-io/github-action runs Cypress from GitHub Actions. It returns resultsUrl from Cypress Cloud whether the run is successful or not. See https://github.com/cypress-io/github-action/blob/master/README.md#outputs.

If you prefer an API method to call Cypress from JavaScript, then you can use the Cypress Module API.

Outdated / Deprecations

Here some additional comments which don't solve your problem, however it is probably a good idea to address them anyway:

Your build.yml uses outdated GitHub Actions versions:

• actions/checkout@v3 => v4
• actions/setup-node@v3 => v4
• actions/upload-artifact@v2 => v3 or v4

The use of ::set-output is deprecated by GitHub Actions.
See https://github.blog/changelog/2023-07-24-github-actions-update-on-save-state-and-set-output-commands/

Thanks @MikeMcC399 here is the definition which just calls the cypress-cloud-exec.js file

To post code in a readable way you can use triple backticks ``` - refer to GitHub documentation Fenced code blocks.
