Setting up Proxy environment variable for Docker container

Question

Hello Everyone,

We got mail from Adobe saying there will be some upcoming technical changes on UI test execution from Adobe side so we need to do some changes to our current UI testing configuration. We need to apply those changes before 01-Sep-2024.If not applied, UI test execution / deployment pipelines may start failing after the changes are applied on Adobe side.

Those changes are mentioned here: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/implementing/using-cloud-manager/test-results/functional-testing/ui-testing#cypress-specific-details

A sample implementation involves setting the HTTP_PROXY and NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS environment variables when the container starts. We have added suggested script in cypress run.sh file but we are not sure what should be actual values for HTTP_PROXY and NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS environment variables. Do we need to set these values or Adobe will set them? How to test these changes in Localhost and in cloud pipeline?

Please let us know if anyone is having idea on this.

Hi @supriya-hande
You can check this with Adobe, from PR description I can see this is for proxy enabled program, which allow cypress to access proxy enabled program on cloud manager.
