cypress-real-events
Advanced tools
The cypress-real-events package provides a set of commands to simulate real user interactions in Cypress tests. This includes actions like clicking, typing, and hovering, which are more realistic compared to the default Cypress commands.
Real Click
Simulates a real user click on a button element. This is more accurate than the default Cypress click command as it mimics the actual user interaction.
cy.get('button').realClick();Real Type
Simulates real typing into an input field. This is useful for testing scenarios where the timing and sequence of keystrokes matter.
cy.get('input').realType('Hello World');Real Hover
Simulates a real user hovering over an element. This can be used to test hover states and tooltips.
cy.get('button').realHover();Real Press
Simulates pressing a key on the keyboard. This is useful for testing keyboard shortcuts and form submissions.
cy.get('input').realPress('Enter');The cypress-plugin-tab package allows you to simulate tab key presses in Cypress tests. While it focuses on keyboard navigation, it does not provide the full range of real user interactions that cypress-real-events offers.
The cypress-commands package extends Cypress with additional commands, including some for user interactions. However, it does not focus specifically on simulating real user events as cypress-real-events does.
The cypress-testing-library package provides a set of utilities for testing DOM nodes. It focuses on improving the readability and maintainability of tests rather than simulating real user interactions.
