Description

Take the next step on becoming an expert in test automation with Cypress and broaden your test automation skills.

Cypress is an open-source test framework that allows writing automated tests in an easy, quick and reliable way, all in JavaScript, and this is what you will learn in this course.

During the course, we will install Cypress, we will set it up to write the tests, we will cover different ways of interacting with web applications, such as navigation via URLs, different kinds of actions (e.g., typing on text fields, selecting options, clicking on buttons, etc.), we will learn how to create test assertions to verify that the application under test is behaving as it should be, and finally, we will learn how to run the tests both in interactive and headless mode.

As soon as you're done with the course, you will be able to put all the learnings into practice on your web projects (of your own or related to your work.)

These are the main benefits of enrolling in this course:

  • Easy project setup

  • Rapid evolution from lesson-to-lesson

  • Fast and reliable GUI automated tests

  • Automated tests that are independent of each other

  • Ready-for-CI automated tests

Come learn how to use this modern test framework that is simplifying the life of software development professionals and stand out in the market.
