Failure when using a tsconfig file with 'extends' #364
Description
Activity
So the issue here could be that the base config file might be residing at a different location wrt your
cypress.jsonfile. Here, you can use thehome_directoryconfig to solve this problem. You can find more info about it here -https://www.browserstack.com/docs/automate/cypress/home-directoryThis question was asked by me on stackoverflow. I was facing same issue but for that quick resolution I removed extends(I know its not ideal solution). But in cypress 10 cypress.json is no longer, so we need support of cypress10.
BrowserStack supports Cypress 10. Here is the docs link -> https://www.browserstack.com/docs/automate/cypress Let us know if
home_directorydoesn't solve the issue.
The browserstack cli fails to prepare test files if the tsconfig uses 'extends'. If I copy the exact tsconfig that was extended into my compilerOptions rather than using 'extends', then it succeeds. This can be problematic in cases like mine where many services extend a base config.
