What are the different ways to select elements in Cypress?
← All Cypress questions
Re-explain
Cypress provides multiple ways to select elements:
// CSS selectors
cy.get('.class-name')
cy.get('#element-id')
cy.get('[data-testid="submit-button"]')
// Text content
cy.contains('Click me')
cy.contains('button', 'Submit')
// Attributes
cy.get('[type="email"]')
cy.get('[aria-label="Close dialog"]')
// Pseudo-selectors
cy.get(':first')
cy.get(':last')
cy.get(':nth-child(2)')
// Combined selectors
cy.get('form').find('input[type="email"]')
