WDIO v6 - browser.mock() does not work if session is reloaded

[johnson-tyl]

We are using browser.mock() to spy on non XHR calls and we have situation where we need to do a browser.sessionReload() which causes browser.mock() to stop working on any new window opened. Is this is expected? And is there a workaround to this? We cant use clearCookies() as we have multiple applications and the clearingCookies at the end only clears cookies of the last opened domain.

Any help on this is appreciated.

@johnson-tyl what WebdriverIO version are you using?

[christian-bromann]

Seems that you've closed a browser window somewhere.

Yes, browser.reloadSession() closes and reopens the browser, that's what the original problem was in v6. Calling browser.mock() works for the first test, in afterScenario we run browser.reloadSession() and when the next test starts and if there's a browser.mock(), then this error is seen.

We have upgraded everything WDIO module to latest v7.

Any advice, please?
