Answer 1

It seems like you have used When('login...', () => { instead of When('login...', function() { since error message says this is undefined.

But maybe you already tried that and When() does not support Mocha this scope (since When() is a wrapper over it()).

There are alternatives:

• explicitly retrieve the alias value

  cy.get('@ORLoginPage').then(RLoginPage => {
    cy.get(RLoginPage.Email...
  

• use require to get fixtures

  const RLoginPage = require('../fixtures/OR_LoginPage.json')
  
  When('login...', () => {
    cy.get(RLoginPage.Email...
