Dark mode for Cypress test runner from user space
You can find videos from Cypress Dark test run on Cypress Dashboard
Requires Node version 6 or above.
npm install --save-dev cypress-dark
Add to your cypress/support/index.js line
require('cypress-dark/src/halloween')
Add to your cypress/support/index.js line
require('cypress-dark')
By default dark theme will be loaded. If you want to switch to another theme, set its name in your cypress.json file.
{
"theme": "dark"
}
If the theme name is unknown (look at CSS files in src folder), or unspecified, default dark
theme will be used.
For now all themes are shipped with this package and can use CSS variables. Available thems are:
You can "tell" the web application under test to switch to the dark mode using media (prefers-color-scheme: dark)
if the application uses JavaScript media query to check for preferred scheme. See original issue #29 and cypress/fixtures/custom-dark.html page.
To enable stubbing window.matchMedia
from your tests and "force" your app to switch to dark mode, set option in cypress.json
{
"darkMediaQuery": true
}
Result - both the test runner and the application are running in dark mode.
