Install

Add this module as a dev dependency to your project

``sh
npm install --save-dev cypress cypress-failed-log


if using Yarn


yarn add -D cypress-failed-log
`

Then include this module from your cypress/support/e2e.js file

`js
// in your cypress/support/e2e.js
// or spec file
// https://github.com/bahmutov/cypress-failed-log
require('cypress-failed-log')
// you can use the "import" keyword
import "cypress-failed-log"
`

$3

`js
// cypress.config.js
const { defineConfig } = require('cypress')

module.exports = defineConfig({
defaultCommandTimeout: 500,
e2e: {
setupNodeEvents(on, config) {
// https://github.com/bahmutov/cypress-failed-log
require('cypress-failed-log/on')(on)
},
},
})
`

When Cypress runs, you will see commands including the failed one, right in the terminal

!Failed terminal output

JSON file

In addition, all failed commands will be saved into a JSON file. The saved JSON file will live in cypress/logs/ and have the following properties:

`
specName - filename of the spec
title - the name of the test
suiteName - the parent suite name
testName - full name of the test, including the suite name
testError - error message string
testCommands - array of strings, the last failing command is the last item
`

Example

Here is the failed test JSON file contents. The test name, the failure
and each test command before the test are recorded

`json
{
"specName": "failing-spec.js",
"title": "loads the About tab",
"suiteName": "Website",
"testName": "Website loads the About tab",
"testError": "Timed out retrying: Expected to find content: 'Join Us' but never did.",
"testCommands": [
"visit",
"new url https://www.company.com/#/",
"contains a.nav-link, About",
"click",
"new url https://www.company.com/#/about",
"hash",
"assert expected #/about to equal #/about",
"contains Join Us",
"assert expected body :not(script):contains('Join Us'), [type='submit'][value~='Join Us'] to exist in the DOM"
]
}
`

Debugging

To turn on debug messages in the browser, open in Cypress browser DevTools console and enter localStorage.debug = 'cypress-failed-log'`, then reload the spec. You should see log messages.
