Random error in beforeEach hook: write EPIPE

[marinamarin91]

What is your Scenario?

For executing the test scenarios in different situations (on-build, nightly, regression) Jenkins configuration is used. Because the folder structure is not the same for every type of build, a shell script is created and it searches for the files to execute depending on the parameters with which is called. Because of this, we had to introduce fixture-meta in our function and tests and since then, the EPIPE error appeared. It is not happening all the time and it's not always on the same scenarios.

What is the Current behavior?

Described above

What is the Expected behavior?

No error should appear, all the tests shall be executed.

What is your public website URL? (or attach your complete example)

Site is not public, but this problem was not present until we introduced the meta-fixture.

What is your TestCafe test code?

fixture ('Atlantis tests HRM') .meta('type', 'SmokeTests-nightly') .meta('system', 'HRM') .before( async ctx => {
ctx.pwd=process.env.TESTUSER_PSW; ctx.acc=process.env.TESTUSER_USR; }) .beforeEach(async t=>{ //Log-In Areea

await t.maximizeWindow() await loginUser.login(t.fixtureCtx.acc, t.fixtureCtx.pwd)

})

class LogIn{ constructor(){ //selectors this.acceptCookiesButton = Selector('#onetrust-accept-btn-handler') this.loginButton = Selector('input[id="LoginButton"]') this.userNameField = Selector('input[id="Username"]') this.passwordField = Selector('input[id="Password"]') }

async login (username, password) {
    await t
      .click(this.acceptCookiesButton)
      .typeText(this.userNameField, username, {paste: true, replace: true})
      .click(this.loginButton)  
      .typeText(this.passwordField, password, {paste: true, replace: true})
      .click(this.loginButton)
    
    }

}
