End-to-End Tests via Cypress

We are using Cypress for end-to-end testing. The relevant files are located in the cypress directory. The current setup makes it possible to develop and run tests locally as well as to execute them in a CI environment.

Local Development

Prerequisites

Due to the fact that we are running E2E tests, you need to have a running instance of the frontend, middleware and Stemmarest, the full stack essentially. Please refer to the main README to start the stack locally using docker-compose.

Working with Cypress

The following instructions assume that you are working on a Unix-based system and your present working directory relative to the repository root is frontend-e2e.

Install the dependencies:

npm install

Open Cypress:

npm start

After running this command, a Cypress window should open automatically. You can now start to add new specifications or modify and execute existing ones. You can verify that the local stack started by docker-compose is running properly by executing the specification availability.cy.js. This will verify that the required components are in a healthy, reachable state.

You can find more details on how to write E2E tests with Cypress in the official documentation.
