Description
Automated testing is a vital part of modern application development. Of course, website development is no exception - you must be able to run automated tests to efficiently detect bugs and regressions.This course teaches you how to write and run end-to-end (E2E) tests with Cypress - one of the most popular web development E2E testing tools can you can use these days!You will learn:What exactly Cypress is and why E2E testing mattersHow to install and use CypressHow to write and run E2E tests with CypressHow to simulate realistic website user flows by selecting elements and simulating user interaction (button clicks, keyboard typing & more)How to write good assertions (and what assertions are)Which core features and concepts Cypress offersHow to use basic and more advanced Cypress conceptsHow to efficiently test third-party codeHow to deal with network (HTTP) requests and databasesHow to test user authentication flowsAnd much more!All these topics will be taught from the ground up, with no prior Cypress knowledge required! You do need basic web development and JavaScript knowledge though.This course focuses on the core Cypress concepts and explores all basic as well as various more advanced Cypress features.By the end of this course, you'll have a solid set of Cypress fundamentals and you'll be ready to dive deeper into Cypress and end-to-end testing!
Who this course is for
Intermediate web developers who have no or very little (end-to-end) testing experience
Web developers who want to add automated end-to-end tests to their projects
