  • .nextAll() is a query, and it is safe to chain further commands.

Examples​

No Args​

Find all of the element's siblings following .second​

<ul>
<li>apples</li>
<li class="second">oranges</li>
<li>bananas</li>
<li>pineapples</li>
<li>grapes</li>
</ul>
// yields [<li>bananas</li>, <li>pineapples</li>, <li>grapes</li>]
cy.get('.second').nextAll()

Selector​

Find all of the following siblings of each li. Keep only the ones with a class selected​

<ul>
<li>apples</li>
<li>oranges</li>
<li>bananas</li>
<li class="selected">pineapples</li>
<li>grapes</li>
</ul>
// yields <li>pineapples</li>
cy.get('li').nextAll('.selected')

Rules​

Requirements ​

  • .nextAll() requires being chained off a command that yields DOM element(s).

Assertions ​

  • .nextAll() will automatically retry until the element(s) exist in the DOM.
  • .nextAll() will automatically retry until all chained assertions have passed.

Timeouts ​

  • .nextAll() can time out waiting for the element(s) to exist in the DOM.
  • .nextAll() can time out waiting for assertions you've added to pass.

Command Log​

Find all elements following the .active li

cy.get('.left-nav').find('li.active').nextAll()

The commands above will display in the Command Log as:

Command Log nextAll

When clicking on nextAll within the command log, the console outputs the following:
