Summary

Let us quickly recap what we have learned in this chapter. We went through a step-by-step installation and setup process for Cypress. We commenced the next section by understanding arrow and callback functions in JavaScript. Then, we continued on to write our first spec and ventured out to comprehend its structure and execution capabilities. We worked on using selectors and assertions within our spec to identify and validate DOM elements. Then, we learned how to intercept API calls in Cypress. We familiarized ourselves with some additional Cypress configurations before taking on web automation considerations.

In the next chapter, we will confront another crucial quality engineering topic: mobile test automation. We will be using Appium 2.0 to formulate test scripts for Android and iOS platforms.
