docs: replace debug log source cypress:server:specs

[MikeMcC399]

• Closes Non-working debug log source cypress:server:specs #5919

Issue

• The debug log source cypress:server:specs, referred to on multiple documentation pages, was removed in Cypress 10.0.0 and does not work on current Cypress versions. The change came through PR feat: support specPattern, deprecate integrationFolder and componentFolder cypress#19319 for Cypress 10.0.0.

Replacement

The direct replacement for cypress:server:specs would be cypress:data-context:sources:FileDataSource,cypress:data-context:sources:ProjectDataSource.

To debug specs not found, use

DEBUG=cypress:cli,cypress:data-context:sources:FileDataSource,cypress:data-context:sources:ProjectDataSource

• This PR also corrects the obsolete usage of cypress:server:config which was removed in [email protected] in Aug 2022, although it is not documented in the changelog. The change to the module debug name was made through PR chore: refactor server/lib/config.ts to pkg/config cypress#22530. cypress:server:project is used instead as multi-level example instead as already used in Guides > Command Line > Debugging commands.

Pretty wordy debug logs to replace it with.

Pretty wordy debug logs to replace it with.

I agree. Unfortunately alternatives either produce too much debug log information:

cypress:data-context:sources:*

... or not enough:

individually

cypress:data-context:sources:FileDataSource

or

cypress:data-context:sources:ProjectDataSource

It would be great to be able to replace it with something shorter which does the trick, if you have any good ideas.
