Cypress is a modern end-to-end testing framework for web applications. It provides a fast, reliable, and easy-to-use testing solution that allows developers to write tests in JavaScript. Cypress offers features like automatic waiting, real-time reloads, and built-in test runner, making it efficient for writing and debugging tests. Its clear and intuitive syntax simplifies the process of creating tests for web applications.

Compared to traditional testing frameworks like Selenium, Cypress stands out for its ability to run tests directly in the browser, enabling faster test execution and easier debugging. Cypress is actively maintained with regular updates and improvements, making it a popular choice for web developers.
