As we all know Cypress is the Automation testing tool for modern web applications (e.g. react) and provide an end-to-end testing framework. Here only way to automate the modern web applications is by using the JavaScript. So, the only language that this tool support is the JavaScript.
The few important benefit of this tool over other automation testing tools are mentioned below:-
Very easy to set-up:-
The main target audience of this tool was the frontend developers itself. That’s why Cypress comes with it’s own browser, with its own test runner and assertion framework (Chai). So, the set up of this Cypress tool is very simple as it already contains all the required packages and the information about the underlying test infrastructure is not required here to start with this tool.
Very easy to use:-
As it only supports JavaScript. So it’s very easy for frontend developers to use this tool to write unit test code block. And also for QA teams, it’s very easy to use and debug the code, as all the error are thrown here same as of any JavaScript applications.
Cypress runs on the Browsers:-
Cypress Framework is architecturally different than other automation testing tools. It runs on the Browsers. And for that it is very fast. And also it has a better information about the state of each web elements. That’s why here timeouts commands are not required.
