In my conversations with people who were thinking about test automation careers, several questions kept coming back quite frequently, such as:

I am wondering if test automation is something for me,
I am looking for a course with more focus on real-life examples,
I do not have so much time. I need something short and condensed instead of multi-hour waffling on a single example.

I have created this course with the hope that it will answer those needs.

Your first test in Cypress

You will start your journey by discovering the fundamental building blocks of Cypress tests. From the very beginning, together we will write your first E2E test. Where I take it apart and explain each of the parts in detail, such as:

Test suite & Test structure
Visiting page
Selecting elements using browser dev tools
Performing actions on selected elements
Assertions

However, that’s not all.

You will also learn how you can improve your tests to follow best practices.

You will learn how to create custom commands, which will make your tests more readable. How to dynamically generate test data for your tests and VS code extensions that will make your work more effective.

I look forward to seeing you in the course 🙂
