Cypress Plugin API blocking UI

[steveleveridge]

Using version 2.11.1

Today we are seeing a lot of our Cypress tests fail as they can't see the element, prior to this interaction the tests make a call to an api using the plug-in. Tests ran ok yesterday, but today we are seeing the errors, no recent updates made in our package.json file.

The cypress runner ui is being covered by the request panel data-cy="requestPanel".

For example "Timed out retrying after 10050ms: cy.click() failed because the center of this element is hidden from view:"

Found the issue, unrelated to the plug-in

still affecting our tests after amending code our end

hey @steveleveridge sorry to keep you waiting. can you please provide more info on this? The plugin overlays the UI when it’s ran. When snapshotOnly is ran, the UI should hide and you should be able to access your elements and not see the plugin UI. if that’s not the case, more info would help
