# cypress/no-force

📝 Disallow using `force: true` with action commands.

<!-- end auto-generated rule header -->

Using `force: true` on inputs appears to be confusing rather than helpful.
It usually silences the actual problem instead of providing a way to overcome it.
See [Cypress Core Concepts](https://docs.cypress.io/app/core-concepts/interacting-with-elements.html#Forcing).

If enabling this rule, it's recommended to set the severity to `warn`.

## Rule Details

This rule disallows using the `force` option on:[`.click()`](https://on.cypress.io/click),
[`.dblclick()`](https://on.cypress.io/dblclick), [`.type()`](https://on.cypress.io/type),
[`.rightclick()`](https://on.cypress.io/rightclick), [`.select()`](https://on.cypress.io/select),
[`.focus()`](https://on.cypress.io/focus), [`.check()`](https://on.cypress.io/check),
and [`.trigger()`](https://on.cypress.io/trigger).

Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:

```js
cy.get('button').click({ force: true })
cy.get('button').dblclick({ force: true })
cy.get('input').type('somth', { force: true })
cy.get('div').find('.foo').find('.bar').trigger('change', { force: true })
cy.get('input').trigger('click', { force: true })
cy.get('input').rightclick({ force: true })
cy.get('input').check({ force: true })
cy.get('input').select({ force: true })
cy.get('input').focus({ force: true })
```

Examples of **correct** code for this rule:

```js
cy.get('button').click()
cy.get('button').click({ multiple: true })
cy.get('button').dblclick()
cy.get('input').type('somth')
cy.get('input').trigger('click', { anyoption: true })
cy.get('input').rightclick({ anyoption: true })
cy.get('input').check()
cy.get('input').select()
cy.get('input').focus()
```
