We used Cypress to automate some user tests. Cypress is a desktop application that is installed on your computer.
Install Cypress
Cypress is a Node application. Node versions can be managed using nvm. To install Cypress in this project we use Node v.8.17.0. This version can be installed using nvm:
nvm install v.8.17.0
Install Cypress via npm:
npm install cypress --save-dev
Executing Tests
Opening Cypress with npx:
npx cypress open
This will open a desktop application where you can browse the test files. We create two test files, one for staging website and another one for production website. They can be found inside cypress/integration directory. Just click on the file that you want to run and the test will start.
A pipeline was created to run the automated test in this repo. The pipeline won't start automatically after a push, it needs to be started manually. There are two stages in this pipeline:
- Build
- Test
