Cypress Test Plan Guide: Examples & Best Practices

Cypress in Modern QA: Statistics and Market Position

1. Understanding Cypress Framework: Modern Web Testing Foundation

describe('Shopping Cart Functionality', () => {
  it('should add items to cart', () => {
    cy.visit('/products')
    cy.get('[data-testid="add-to-cart"]').click()
    cy.get('[data-testid="cart-items"]').should('have.length', 1)
  })
})

1.1 Key Components of Cypress Testing:

2. Creating Effective Test Plans for Cypress Projects

3. Implementing Cypress in Real-World Test Scenarios

describe('Shopping Cart', () => {
  beforeEach(() => {
    cy.visit('/shop')
  })
  
  it('should add product to cart', () => {
    cy.get('[data-testid="product-item"]').first().click()
    cy.get('[data-testid="add-to-cart"]').click()
    cy.get('[data-testid="cart-count"]').should('have.text', '1')
  })
})

describe('Authentication', () => {
  it('should login successfully', () => {
    cy.intercept('POST', '/api/login').as('loginRequest')
    cy.visit('/login')
    cy.get('#email').type('user@example.com')
    cy.get('#password').type('password123')
    cy.get('button[type="submit"]').click()
    cy.wait('@loginRequest')
    cy.url().should('include', '/dashboard')
  })
})
