Wait for multiple XHR requests to the same url or

Question

In Cypress, I have multiple requests that will match my cy.route() declaration. I want to make sure more than one request is made on the route. How do I tell Cypress to wait for multiple XHR requests to the same url?

From the Cypress Docs:

You should set up an alias (using .as()) to a single cy.route() that matches all of the XHRs. You can then cy.wait() on it multiple times. Cypress keeps track of how many matching XHR requests there are.

cy.server()
cy.route('users').as('getUsers')
cy.wait('@getUsers')  // Wait for first GET to /users/
cy.get('#list>li').should('have.length', 10)
cy.get('#load-more-btn').click()
cy.wait('@getUsers')  // Wait for second GET to /users/
cy.get('#list>li').should('have.length', 20)
