{"library":"cypress-plugin-api","type":"library","category":null,"description":"Cypress Plugin API is a tool for enhancing API testing within the Cypress test runner by providing a user interface similar to Postman. It extends the standard `cy.request()` command with `cy.api()`, which visually logs details about API calls, including URLs, headers, request/response bodies, and cookies, directly into the Cypress App UI. These details are viewable through time-travel snapshots. Key features include JSON data object/array folding, HTTP method color coding, response size calculation, and options for sensitive data masking (like credentials) and integrating API calls seamlessly into UI test flows using `snapshotOnly` mode. The plugin currently maintains version `2.11.2`, released on July 14, 2024, with a consistent cadence of bug fixes and minor feature additions. It ships with TypeScript types to provide a better development experience.","language":"javascript","status":"active","version":"2.11.2","tags":["javascript","cypress","api","testing","plugin","typescript"],"last_verified":"Wed May 27","install":[{"cmd":"npm install cypress-plugin-api","imports":["import 'cypress-plugin-api'","require('cypress-plugin-api')","/// <reference types=\"cypress-plugin-api\" />"]},{"cmd":"yarn add cypress-plugin-api","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add cypress-plugin-api","imports":[]}],"homepage":null,"github":"https://github.com/filiphric/cypress-plugin-api","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/cypress-plugin-api","openapi_spec":null,"status_page":null,"smithery":null,"compatibility":{"summary":{"python_range":"18–22","success_rate":0,"avg_install_s":null,"avg_import_s":null,"wheel_type":null},"url":"https://checklist.day/v1/registry/cypress-plugin-api/compatibility"}}
