This video shows how to check multiple checkboxes and how to validate the number of checked and clear boxes in your Cypress tests
// there are no checked boxes at first
cy.get('input[type=checkbox]:checked').should('have.length', 0)
const n = Cypress._.random(1, 5)
cy.log(`checking the first ${n} boxes`)
for (let k = 0; k less than n; k += 1) {
cy.get('input[type=checkbox]').eq(k).check()
}
cy.get('input[type=checkbox]:checked').should('have.length', n)
// clear boxes
cy.get('input[type=checkbox]:not(:checked)').should(
'have.length',
