How to debug when applications gets stuck on CI only?

[markusheiden]

Our application seems to load in Cypress but then gets stuck somehow. I assume that there is a problem with the calls to the backend. This just happens when running the tests on GitLab CI. When connecting to the application pod directly and executing the tests against it from my local machine, all tests pass.

The screenshots, videos, and test reports give me no clue what is happening exactly. They just tell me that a list entry is not present, that should have been loaded from the backend.

How can I get the console logs from such a run?
Or is it possible to open the developer tools / network tab to see it in the recorded video?
Are there any other options to gather more context than the screenshots, videos, and test reports?

After even more googling I found "Test Replay". That solves the problem :-) It would have been nice if one wouldn't need the Cloud for that.
