await-async-query rule with Cypress

[MerlinMason]

Is the rule await-async-query still valid when using testing library with Cypress?

It seems to contradict Cypress's guidance on not using async in tests.

This plugins isn't officially supporting any other testing library than dom, angular, react or vue, so it could happen that there are some inconsistencies.

We already have #80 to track supporting more testing libraries

Ahh ok, thanks for clarifying!

I'm using Jest and Cypress in my project, so I've added the following to my eslint config:

overrides: [
    {
        files: ["**/cypress/**/*.spec.js", "**/cypress/**/*.spec.ts"],
        rules: {
            "testing-library/await-async-query": 0,
        },
    },
],

Hey @MerlinMason! Since eslint-plugin-testing-library isn't fully compatible with Cypress, and cypress-testing-library offers a restricted group of features from Testing Library (IIRC just within and findBy* queries), I would suggest enabling eslint-plugin-testing-library only for your non-cypress tests. You can find an example of how to do this for jest here: https://github.com/testing-library/eslint-plugin-testing-library#eslint-overrides
