Cypress: Test hangs on Jenkins CI/ locally

Created on 17 Sep 2018  ·  7Comments  ·  Source: cypress-io/cypress

Current behavior:

Test run stucks on Jenkins CI (using Electron)/ locally (using electron). Using chrome as browser option the test finishes as expected:

```

This is only happening with this specific test case. Inside we're using a generation of a blob object to simulate a file upload process - not sure if electron has an issue with this.

Desired behavior:

Run on electron should finish - same as with chrome.

Steps to reproduce:

Versions

Cypress: 3.1.0
Mac OS X: 10.13.6

@jennifer-shehane we solved this now with a global overwrite of the window.onbeforeunload function at the end of all runs - in file cypress/support/index.js

after(function() {
    cy.window().then(win => win.onbeforeunload = undefined );
});

It seems to be the case that cypress is not able to properly close the electron browser session if the window.onbeforeunload script returns something which would trigger a (non HTML) dialog to the user.

@jennifer-shehane I don't think that it is originally related to the video output. I re-ran it with video:false configuration setting and again it got hung up (there is only one spec file existing)

@jennifer-shehane I believe this should be the Highest Priority to be fixed as a Hotfix as soon as possible really. I recently convinced my team and department to use Cypress for all our e2e testings and all our Jenkin builds started to crash when we added cypress execution to our Jenkin build process. This is almost embarrassing for a framework that is built for ensuring better build!

@shinobi64 Thank you for detailing a workaround. We will have to look into the case of window.onbeforeunload triggering dialogs being an issue here.

@neg0 We're unable to prioritize issues without reproducible examples or some lead on where the problem originates. Can you confirm the workaround fixes your issue?

Had the same issue and the work-around fixed it for me.
It would be good to get a error message at least.
Currently tests just hang
