Cypress: Test if element does not exist

Question

I want to be able to click on a check box and test that an element is no longer in the DOM in Cypress. Can someone suggest how you do it?

Answer 1

cy.get('[data-e2e="create-entity-field-relation-contact-name"]').should('not.exist');

might lead to some false results, as some error messages get hidden. It might be better to use

.should('not.visible');

in that case.
