@alias.all Throws An Error When Defining Alias in Intercept With Route Handler in Version 12

[blabute]

Current behavior

Currently, if you use cy.intercept with a route handler to define the alias, grabbing all instances of the alias @alias.all throws an error. This worked before upgrading to version 12 (verified it works with 11.2.0).

There error is:

cy.get() could not find a registered alias for: @alias.
You have not aliased anything yet.

Desired behavior

Regardless of if you define an alias using .as or request.alias, you should still be able to access all of the alias instances using @alias.all.

Test code to reproduce

I grabbed https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/blob/develop/packages/driver/cypress/e2e/commands/net_stubbing.cy.ts#L3678-L3691 and changed the way we alias the request to expose the issue.

let routeCount = 0
const uniqueRoute = (route) => {
  routeCount += 1

  return `${route}-${routeCount}`
}

it('gets all aliased Interceptions by alias.all', function () {
    const url = uniqueRoute('/foo')

    cy.intercept(`${url}*`, (request) => {
      request.alias = 'alias';
      request.reply({ bar: 'baz' });
    })
      .then(() => {
        Cypress.$.get(url)
        Cypress.$.get(url)
      })
      .wait('@alias').wait('@alias')

      cy.get('@alias.all').then((interceptions) => {
        expect(interceptions).to.have.length(2)
      })
  })

I was following #24653 and #25210 which seem to be related but not exactly the same. Since one issue was closed, I decided to raise this issue which shows a specific example that was working before upgrading to version 12.

Is it documented somewhere that setting request.alias = 'alias' should work? As far as I know, the only supported method for aliasing a request is with .as().

Yup! Here is a guide to working with graphql which happens to be our use case.

With the test I linked in the issue, cy.wait('@alias') works without error (which seems like the alias is getting created). It's only when accessing cy.get('@alias.all') that the issue happens.

TIL! Definitely not working as documented then. I'll route this to my team to investigate.

I'm getting the same issue when trying to access the last instance of the alias (@alias.last) even though the alias does come up in the list of available aliases
