This blog post shows how to increase the resolution of the videos and screenshots recorded during the cypress run execution. Videos with higher resolution make debugging simpler and look better when shared with other members of the team. The problem Let's look at the Wikipedia.com website. In my local Chrome browser the home page looks nice and sharp: Let's load this page from the Cypress test. it('loads the site', () => { cy.visit('/') cy.screenshot('wiki', {capture: 'runner'}) }) The
This blog post tests an application that fetches new data every 30 seconds, but the test itself runs in milliseconds because it controls the application's clock and stubs the network responses.
Let's take a page where a loading element is displayed while the application is fetching the data from the server. If the test is observing the loading element to make sure it disappears, can the loading be too fast? Can the test runner "blink" and miss the element?
Last week, Distinguished Engineer at Cypress, Gleb Bahmutov, and Developer Relations Lead at Codecov, Tom Hu, presented a live webcast on how to ship safer code with Cypress and Codecov.
⚠️This post is about running Cypress 10.1.x and below on Apple M1 ARM Architecture. Cypress 10.2.0 onwards includes native Apple Silicon support [https://cypress-io.ghost.io/blog/2022/06/21/cypress-10-2-0-run-tests-up-to-2x-faster-on-apple-silicon-m1/] and does not require Rosetta to function. We recommend upgrading Cypress instead of following this guide for an older version. Native M1 builds run up to 3.5x faster than Rosetta-translated builds.Apple's latest ARM-based M1 chip has begun to mak
Here are some of the highlights of the past year at Cypress, as well as a sneak peek into what we have planned to make testing even better in 2021.
Join us on Wednesday, January 13th at 2pm EST/11am PST to find out how you can use Cypress tests with Codecov to write highly durable code that allows you to deploy with confidence.
On Wednesday, we announced a $40M Series B round of funding led by OpenView Venture Partners.
