Cypress can't navigate to a specific Email Service (Proton Mail)

Proton Mail

I'm new to Cypress and i encountered this problem, basically what i need to do is just login and do some testing in the site.

Link: Proton Mail

The first error when visiting the site was a Security Error:

Blocked a frame with origin "http://..." from accessing a cross-origin frame.

Cypress Throwing Security Error

So i did what the suggested solution was, now the Security Error was gone but the page doesn't seem to load after adding it in the cypress.config

I'm kinda confused how to solve this problem is it because of the site? or i need other tweaks to solve this issue?

The test is very simple:

it('should navigate to Protonmail', () => {
   cy.visit('https://account.proton.me/login')
   login_proton(Cypress.env('test').email, Cypress.env('test').password)
})
Solution

  • I just found out that there's no workaround for this https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/7449

    I suggest to change email service you're using, in my case testing framework, i switched to Playwright.
