# ![GitHub Logo](https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1044345247440896001/pXI1GDHW_50x50.jpg) Full E2E test suite with Cypress 
> **site:** http://angularjs.realworld.io/ [WIP] 

## :goal_net: Goals:
- keep it simple - no 'custom' abstractions/functions/utils/helpers (use what Cypress provides)
- tests are easily readable
- project is easily understandable even to people without previous JS or Cypress knowledge

## :gear: Setup

`git clone https://github.com/helenanull/cypress-example.git`

cd to `cypress-example` folder and run `npm install`


## :heavy_check_mark: Run tests

- If you installed Cypress via npm: 
    - cypress test runner (cypress __open__):
      - **`npm run cy:open:web`** OR `cypress open --env device=web` (change web to mob to switch to mobile view)
    
    - cypress __headless mode__ (cypress run):
      - `npm run cy:run:web` OR `cypress run --env device=web`
- If you installed Cypress zip:
    - import **`cypress-example`** folder and you are good to go

## :bulb: Information

Tests are located in `cypress/integration` folder

Configuration files:
1. `cypress.json`
2. `plugins/index.js`

Custom commands (shortcuts) are located in `cypress/support` folder (`.cmd.js` suffix)

Selectors are located in `cypress/selectors` folder [only difference from cypress default project structure]
- __not__ using page objects pattern but keeping selectors (only selectors) separately as they are not easily readable and sometimes we need to share selectors between tests, like header my account button in login test


## :grey_question: Q&A
1. Why mobile view is in config and not in test (like cy.viewport())?
- we can't change userAgent in the middle of the test:
https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/2100
So it seems more correct to launch the tests with the correct config (--env device=mob/web)
