E2E testing in software development

E2E testing is a comprehensive testing approach that evaluates the application’s functionality and performance from start to finish. Unlike unit testing, which isolates and tests individual components or units of code, E2E testing examines the application as an integrated whole, simulating real-world user scenarios. This method ensures that all the various components of the application, including its interfaces, databases, networks, and other services, work harmoniously to deliver the desired user experience.

E2E testing frameworks

Given that E2E testing often involves interacting with the application from the outside, it’s not confined to the language in which the application is written. For C++ applications, which might be part of a larger ecosystem or serve as backend systems, E2E testing can be conducted using a variety of frameworks across different languages. Some popular E2E testing frameworks include the following:
