Advanced tools
The Nx Plugin for Cypress contains executors and generators allowing your workspace to use the powerful Cypress integration testing capabilities.
@nrwl/cypress is a package that provides Cypress integration for Nx workspaces. It allows you to run end-to-end tests using Cypress, a popular testing framework for web applications. This package helps in setting up Cypress within an Nx workspace, generating Cypress projects, and running tests efficiently.
Generate Cypress Project
This command generates a new Cypress end-to-end (E2E) testing project for an existing application within an Nx workspace. The generated project will be configured to run Cypress tests for the specified application.
nx generate @nrwl/cypress:project my-app-e2e --project=my-appRun Cypress Tests
This command runs the Cypress E2E tests for the specified project. It will open the Cypress test runner and execute the tests defined in the project.
nx run my-app-e2e:e2eConfigure Cypress
This is an example of a Cypress configuration file. It sets up node event listeners and specifies the base URL for the application being tested. This configuration is essential for customizing the behavior of Cypress tests.
module.exports = { e2e: { setupNodeEvents(on, config) { // implement node event listeners here }, baseUrl: 'http://localhost:4200' } };Cypress is a JavaScript end-to-end testing framework that is widely used for testing web applications. It provides a rich set of features for writing and running tests, including time travel, real-time reloads, and automatic waiting. Unlike @nrwl/cypress, which is tailored for Nx workspaces, Cypress can be used in any JavaScript project.
Jest is a JavaScript testing framework developed by Facebook, primarily used for unit testing. While it is not specifically designed for end-to-end testing like Cypress, it can be extended with additional libraries to perform integration and E2E tests. Jest is known for its simplicity and ease of use, making it a popular choice for testing JavaScript applications.
TestCafe is an end-to-end testing framework for web applications. It allows you to write tests in JavaScript or TypeScript and run them across different browsers. TestCafe is similar to Cypress in terms of functionality but does not require browser plugins or WebDriver, making it easier to set up and use.
