$ npm install -D cypress-highlight
# or using Yarn
$ yarn add -D cypress-highlight
import { highlight } from 'cypress-highlight'
it('loads an app', () => {

By default, this module highlight all elements with data-cy
attribute. You can pass your own list of selectors to highlight. For example, to highlight all elements with data attribute test-id
and all elements with class name testable
, use
highlight('[data-test-id]', '.testable')
