Cypress: Detailed Overview & Metrics
Cypress is a modern end-to-end testing framework built for the web. It provides a fast, reliable, and easy-to-use testing solution for web applications. Cypress allows developers to write tests in JavaScript and run them directly in the browser, enabling real-time feedback and debugging. It offers features like automatic waiting, time travel, and snapshots for easier test creation and maintenance.
Compared to traditional testing frameworks like Selenium, Cypress stands out for its simplicity, speed, and robustness. It eliminates flakiness in tests by controlling the application directly, resulting in more stable and efficient testing processes.
