This project demonstrates a robust and efficient login functionality using Cypress, a powerful end-to-end testing framework for modern web applications. The primary goal is to provide a comprehensive example of how to create, manage, and execute login tests using Cypress.
Features :
- Simple and Intuitive Syntax: Cypress provides a clean and intuitive syntax, making it easy for both developers and testers to read, write, and understand test scripts.
- Real-Time Reloads: Instantly view changes to your application and test code in real-time as Cypress automatically reloads the application when changes are made.
- Time-Travel Debugging: Debugging is made efficient with time-travel, allowing you to inspect the state of your application at any point during test execution.
- Automatic Waiting: Cypress intelligently waits for elements to appear and actions to complete, eliminating the need for manual waits or sleeps in your test scripts.
- Bundled Test Runner: The Cypress Test Runner provides a rich environment for running and debugging tests, including interactive command logging and real-time test status updates.
- Cross-Browser Testing: Cypress supports cross-browser testing, enabling you to run your tests on multiple browsers to ensure consistent behavior across different environments.
- Parallel Test Execution: Execute tests in parallel, significantly reducing the overall test execution time and allowing for faster feedback in the development cycle.
- Network Traffic Control: Monitor, intercept, and control network traffic to simulate various network conditions, helping you test how your application behaves in different scenarios.
- Headless and Interactive Modes: Run tests in headless mode for automated CI/CD pipelines, or switch to interactive mode for real-time exploration and debugging.
- Cross-Device Testing: Test your application's responsiveness and functionality on different devices by easily switching between viewport sizes and device orientations.
Follow these instructions to install Cypress.
If you want to experiment with running this project in Continous Integration, you'll need to fork it first.
After forking this project in Github, run these commands:
## clone this repo to a local directory
git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/cypress-example-todomvc.git
## cd into the cloned repo
cd cypress-example-todomvc
## install the node_modules
npm install
## start the local webserver
npm startThe npm start script will spawn a webserver on port 8888 which hosts the TodoMVC app.
You can verify this by opening your browser and navigating to: http://localhost:8888
You should see the TodoMVC app up and running. We are now ready to run Cypress tests.
Follow these instructions to add the project to Cypress.
Follow these instructions to run the tests in CI.
Clone the project
## clone this repo to a local directory
