A payment application to demonstrate real-world usage of Cypress testing methods, patterns, and workflows.

💬 Note from maintainers

This application is purely for demonstration and educational purposes. Its setup and configuration resemble typical real-world applications, but it's not a full-fledge production system. Use this app to learn, experiment, tinker, and practice application testing with Cypress.

Happy Testing

Features

🛠 Built with React, XState, Express, lowdb, and TypeScript
⚡️ Zero database dependencies
🚀 Full-stack Express/React application with real-world features and tests
👮‍♂️ Local Authentication 🔥 Database Seeding with End-to-end Tests
💻 CI/CD + Cypress Dashboard

Getting Started

The Cypress Real-World App (RWA) is a full-stack Express/React application backed by a local JSON database (lowdb).

The app is bundled with example data (data/database.json) that contains everything you need to start using the app and run tests out-of-the-box.

🚩 Note

You can login to the app with any of the example app users. The default password for all users is s3cret.

Installation

yarn install

Run the app

yarn dev

Start Cypress

yarn cypress:open

Tests

Database

• The local JSON database located in data/database.json and is managed with lowdb.

• The database is reseeded each time the application is started (via yarn dev). Database seeding is done in between each Cypress End-to-End test.

• Updates via the React frontend are sent to the Express server and handled by a set of database utilities

• Generate a new database using yarn db:seed.

• An empty database seed is provided along with a script (yarn start:empty) to view the application without data.

Additional NPM Scripts

For a complete list of scripts see package.json

Code Coverage Report

The Cypress Real-World App uses the @cypress/code-coverage plugin to generate code coverage reports for the app frontend and backend.

To generate a code coverage report:

1. Run yarn cypress:run --env coverage=true and wait for the test run to complete.
2. Once the test run is complete, you can view the report at coverage/index.html.
