Simple selectbox isn't working

bernhardh opened this issue · comments

Cypress Chrome Recorder doesn't work with simple selectboxes. Instead of using the select method, it uses the type method.

I have made just a very simple testpage, with an selectbox in it:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge">
    <title>HTML 5 Boilerplate</title>
  </head>
  <body>

        <select id="select">
                <option></option>
                <option>Option 1</option>
                <option>Option 2</option>
                <option>Option 3</option>
                <option>Option 4</option>
        </select>
  </body>
</html>

Then I created a recording where i selected some options and exported it to cypress:

describe("Selectbox", () => {
  it("tests Selectbox", () => {
    cy.viewport(1151, 1329);
    cy.visit("https://webcaravel.at/select.html");
    cy.get("#select").type("Option 1");
    cy.get("html").click();
    cy.get("#select").type("Option 3");
  });
});

When I run this test, the selectbox doesn't change the option at all.
