You can scaffold Cypress specs written in TypeScript
npx @bahmutov/cly init --typescript
# or equivalent
npx @bahmutov/cly init -tSometimes you just need a spec file, without any fixtures, support, or plugin files. Use --bare option to scaffold the minimal cypress test
npx @bahmutov/cly init --bare
# or equivalent
npx @bahmutov/cly init -bYou can specify version to scaffold using --cv, --cypress-version <version> argument. For example to scaffold for Cypress v4 run
npx @bahmutov/cly init --cv 4Only the major version will be considered
npx @bahmutov/cly init --cypress-version 3.8.3
✅ scaffolded "cypress" folder with a single example spec (v3)Notice that example folders for TypeScript have format <major version>ts.
