Kasa Case Study with Cypress - Typescript - and Cucumber

This project has been created in order to assess the author's ability to work with live code.

Installation

Install the latest Node.

Install VSCode - or any IDE of your choice, and setup your environment.

Use the following commands in the repository folder to finish up your installation.

npm install

Usefull scripts

It should open up Cypress GUI (Should not be used that much)

npm run cypress

Script for running every test

npm run test:all

Script for running only E2E test cases

npm run test:e2e

Script for running only API test cases

npm run test:api

After you have run your test cases ./cypress/results folder will be populated with the appropriate json reports. With this script you can generate human readable HTML report in the ./mochawesome-report folder

npm run report

Usage - Organizing tests

Put your feature files in cypress/integration/ Put your API tests in cypress/integration/api-tests

The .feature file will use steps definitions from a directory with the same name as your .feature file. The javascript files containing the step definitions can have other names if you want to break them into different concerns.

Assuming the feature file is in cypress/integration/example.feature, as proposed above, the preprocessor will read all the files inside cypress/support/step_definitions/example.ts, so:

Reusable step definitions

We also have a way to create reusable step definitions.

Example: cypress/support/step_definitions/commonSteps.ts
