Cypress how to continue to call back end API until getting the expected result or timeout
I need to create a test case which needs to call a "get" API method to get some information, but the back end server some time need time to process, so I need to create a loop to continue to call the "get" API method until getting the expected result or timeout.
the pseudo code looks like following
string responseMessage;
for(i=0, i<10, i++) {
responseMessage = callGetApi();
if (responseMessage == "success") {
exit loop;
}else {
wait 1 seccond;
}
}
but I don't know how to create that kind of code in Cypress, please help!

Use async/await:
it('Test loop', async function() {
for(let i=0; i<10; i++) {
await Cypress.Promise(resolve => {
cy.request(your_url).should(response => {
expect(response.status).to.eq(200);
resolve();
});
}
}
});
Thanks for your answer, one problem after I use your code in my test, the test is to continue running not stop even the response status is 200, and I added code "console.log(i);" to show the iteration. the console show stop at second iteration.
