API .each / .then example fails linting cypress/unsafe-to-chain-command #246
Description
Current behavior
The following API example for .each() as shown on the documentation site under DOM Elements
cy.get('li')
.should('have.length', 3)
.each(($li, index, $lis) => {
return 'something else'
})
.then(($lis) => {
expect($lis).to.have.length(3) // true
})fails linting with the error cypress/unsafe-to-chain-command.
Desired behavior
All examples in API > Other Commands > end > Examples showing the use of the Cypress API call .each should pass linting using the Cypress linting recommended configuration as defined by the Cypress-provided cypress-io/eslint-plugin-cypress npm module.
Test code to reproduce
git clone --branch 246-cypress-each https://github.com/MikeMcC399/cypress-test-tiny
cd cypress-test-tiny
npm ci
npm run cypress:lintNote that the example fails when run with npx cypress run because the test page https://example.cypress.io/commands/connectors doesn't match the test, however this issue is only about linting, not about getting the test to run successfully.
