Records a user session and generates cypress code for automation and testing purposes.
Cypress Recorder
Cypress Recorder is a developer tool that records user interaction within a web application and generates Cypress scripts to allow the developer to replicate that particular session. This will speed up your development cycle by facilitating the creation of unit and integration tests.
Getting Started
Click 'Add to Chrome'. That's it! Once you see our icon at the upper-right of your browser window, you are ready to start generating Cypress scripts.
Features
This extension will allow you to:
* Record clicks, typing, submits, and navigation in the browser.
* See the scripts render live as they are generated.
* Delete accidental actions.
* Reorder actions as necessary.
* Pause and resume recording within a single session.
* Record navigation within a domain.
* Copy the generated code to your clipboard.
Usage
* Open the extension and click 'Start Recording' to begin recording actions.
* Click links, submit forms, etc.
* Check your saved actions by opening the popup at any time.
* Click 'Stop Recording' to stop recording. From there, you will have the option to resume recording, reset, or copy your generated code to your clipboard.
* You can also use keyboard shortcuts:
On Macs:
- ctrl + R to start and stop recording
- ctrl + G to reset
On PCs and Linux:
- alt + R to start and stop recording
- alt + G to reset

Certain apps make use of a ctrl+r keypress on a mac. The Cypress Recorder plugin prevents that key combination from generating a keypress event. - (2020-07-27, v:1.0.4) Dwine Knott: Recording issues
Noting two issues when recording actions on my Mac: 1. Straight single quotes are randomly recorded as curly quotes. I say random as there doesn't appear to be any pattern to when this happens. I'm frequently having to clean these up in my code when I copy/paste a recorded session 2.SELECT action is not captured when interacting with a select box. It is always captured as TYPE. When attempting to run the test cypress throws an error. - (2020-06-06, v:1.0.2) Michael Freidgeim: Compare with similar tools
Can you provide in Overview why you created your extension when similar tools already exist? What are the advantages (and disadvantages) compare to https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cypress-scenario-a recorder/fmpgoobcionmfneadjapdabmjfkmfekb?hl=en ? - (2020-03-12, v:1.0.1) Chris Howard: Chrome 57 -- Copy to Clipboard Not Working

Hi, Is there any way to record a remote device with cypress? Let's say I want this functionality over code so I can track user experience such as session recording
