Javascript - How to select nth item inside select element in cypress

In Cypress, you can use the eq function to select the nth item inside a select element. Here's an example:

Suppose you have an HTML select element:

<select id="mySelect"> <option value="option1">Option 1</option> <option value="option2">Option 2</option> <option value="option3">Option 3</option> </select> 

To select the nth item (e.g., the second option), you can use Cypress commands like this:

// Assuming you are on a page with the select element // Select the second option (index 1) cy.get('#mySelect').find('option').eq(1).select(); 

In this example:

  • cy.get('#mySelect') is used to get the select element by its ID.
  • .find('option') is used to find all option elements within the select element.
  • .eq(1) is used to select the second option (index 1) within the found options.
  • .select() is used to trigger the selection.

Adjust the index in eq() according to the nth item you want to select (remember that Cypress uses a zero-based index).
