It discusses and compares all the existing installation processes available to create a brand new test framework with each of these two products.
I’ve also included my insights in the article, striving to remain as impartial as possible.
It also includes the open source Cypress plugin cye2e created by Ademola Bhadmus.
If there are any mistakes in the content or in the way I’ve presented the information and my opinions, I sincerely apologize. I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide me with the correct information.
I really hope you find it both enlightening and engaging!
A good article with precise instructions on how to install and work with both tools, which both provide a good solution for creating automated user interface tests.
The challenges that remain to make the use of these tools something that will be easy to track and easy to use are composed of two aspects:
How do we ensure that the entire process is carried out iteratively within project management, especially together with testing management systems? This is a challenge we at Testuff have faced and implemented a transparent and easy-to-implement integration from these tools for automatic reporting of test results into the testing management system.
Running automated scripts written in the aforementioned testing tools in a service model. That is, to provide a solution for users with less technical capabilities to run the aforementioned testing tools, without the need to deal with installations and configurations. Something similar to what the Selenium browser plug-in allows, recording simple scripts from the browser and running them without the need for complex installations.
Thank you for taking the time to read the article @gil .
All tools have their trade offs. We also can see a proliferation of autonomous tools that facilitate the test creation and maintenance. However the usually are $$$.
Will be cheaper with time.
