Element is never found when timeout options are overrided about cypress-wait-until HOT 5 CLOSED

Change you code this way

cy.waitUntil(
-   () => {
+   () =>
        cy.reload().then(
            () => Cypress.$(selector).length,
        );
-   },
    {
        interval: 10000,
        timeout: 120000,
        errorMsg: 'Element not found',
    },
);

The error was that checkFunction, the first parameter of cy.waitUntil, doesn't return a truthy value. The README says

checkFunction: a function that must return a truthy value when the wait is over.

while your function returns undefined 😊

By using the code I shared, it works for me locally, please let me know it it works for you too 😊

hi @mturcan
Could you please a minimal repo that reproduces the problem, please? You can also fork this repository, change public/index.html to recreate the same circumstances, and add a test to show the problem if you prefer.

Thanks

Hi @NoriSte

I have created the PR with an additional test that searches for an existing element with reload. So element should be found after first reload right? Instead it's reloading the page the whole timeout specified and fails with 'Element not found'.

Thank you,

@NoriSte it works in the forked repo, however it fails in my original project :(

thank you anyway!

Ok, at least it's not this plugin's fault 😁 I guess the element appears later compared to the load event Cypress waits before "unlocking" the visit command?
