timeout doesn't work about cypress-wait-until

[NoriSte]

#75 contains a longer explanation, the solution is

cy.waitUntil(() => Cypress.$(".e2e-my-lessons-grid > *").length, { timeout: 120000, interval: 1000 })

Hi @mesqueeb! In order to understand why your use of waitUntil can't work (using a Cypress assertion inside the waitUntil checker function), please take a look at #139 and #35. If they are not enough, feel free to reopen the issue 😉

@mesqueeb last not least: if you only need a different timeout for cy.get(".e2e-my-lessons-grid > *").should("exist")... You do not need this plugin! Cypress commands' timeout is customizable, take a look at cy.get options.

Then, simply write

cy.get(".e2e-my-lessons-grid > *", {timeout: 120000}).should("exist")

@NoriSte I understand. thanks for the info.

I did try this however:

cy.get(".e2e-my-lessons-grid > *", {timeout: 120000}).should("exist")

the problem is that there is no way to set the "interval" and it's literally checking almost every 10ms, really eating up the memory.

That's why I want to use your library to set an interval of around 500ms or so.

How can I use your library to wait until a Dom element exists with a long timeout and an interval of 500ms?

PS: it's not possible to re-open issues that are closed by the repo owner 😅
