TestCafe is a modern end-to-end testing framework for web applications that allows you to write tests in JavaScript or TypeScript. It provides a simple and intuitive API for automating interactions with web pages, handling authentication, and performing assertions. TestCafe runs tests in multiple browsers simultaneously, ensuring consistent behavior across different environments.

Compared to other testing frameworks like Selenium or Cypress, TestCafe stands out for its built-in smart waiting mechanism, which eliminates the need for manual timeouts and improves test stability. It also offers seamless integration with popular CI/CD tools and supports parallel test execution for faster feedback.
