This Lab will consist of two parts:

Talk: Overview and discussion on what Cypress is and the benefits of using Cucumber with Cypress
Workshop: Setting up Cypress on a project and writing your first tests

Objective:

During this meetup we will help people test their web application by introducing them to cypress and setting up their project to use it. Also demonstrate how tests are written with Cypress and can be made re-usable with Cucumber and a business focused language.

What to expect:

Insights into what Cypress is and how this differs from Selenium
Pros and Cons of using Cypress / Cucumber
Setting up your own project to use Cypress
Writing common tests to validate the functionality of your website

NEXT STEPS

Following this meetup we will run a further deep dive into what you can also do with cypress; mocking network traffic, page objects vs components

DON’T FORGET

Bring your own laptop (with your application up and running or you can use our test application but you must have node installed)
