Subtask 1: Setting up e2e Tests

Install and configure the necessary tools/frameworks for end-to-end (e2e) testing. Examples of popular e2e testing tools are Cypress, Protractor, and Puppeteer. Write e2e tests to verify the correct functioning of the application from a user's perspective.

Use cypress for the e2e testing, use cucmber.js for scenarios.

Implement task #39 - Subtask 1: Setting up e2e Tests

To set up end-to-end (e2e) testing for the web app, I recommend using Cypress as the testing tool and Cucumber.js for writing scenarios. Cypress is a popular choice for e2e testing due to its simplicity and powerful features, while Cucumber.js provides a BDD-style syntax for writing tests in a more human-readable format.

To implement this, follow these steps:

1. Install Cypress by running the command npm install cypress --save-dev.
2. Once installed, open the Cypress Test Runner by running the command npx cypress open. This will launch the Cypress Test Runner UI.
3. Write e2e tests using Cucumber.js with Gherkin syntax. Create a new folder named cypress/integration and add .feature files that describe different scenarios.
4. In your .feature files, define the scenarios, steps, and assertions using Cucumber.js syntax. You can use hooks like Before and After to set up and tear down test data.
5. Implement the step definitions in JavaScript files located in the cypress/support/step_definitions folder. These step definitions will map each step in the scenarios to the corresponding actions and assertions in your Cypress tests.
6. Run the e2e tests by executing the command npx cypress run in your terminal. This will run all the tests headlessly.
7. You can also run the tests in interactive mode by running npx cypress open and selecting the desired test file from the Test Runner UI.

By following this approach, you can ensure that the web app is functioning correctly from a user's perspective and catch any UI or integration issues early in the development process.

Suggested estimation

Setting up e2e Tests can be considered as a medium-sized task (M) based on the complexity and effort required. It involves installing and configuring the necessary tools/frameworks for e2e testing, such as Cypress, Protractor, or Puppeteer. Additionally, writing e2e tests to verify the correct functioning of the application from a user's perspective requires designing and implementing test scenarios, covering various user interactions and edge cases. Overall, it is a significant task that requires a moderate amount of time and effort.

Files required to implement the task

To implement the task of setting up e2e tests, the following files need to be created and updated:

• frontend/cypress.json: This file is used to configure Cypress, the e2e testing tool. It sets up the test environment and specifies test file/folder patterns, among other configurations.

• frontend/package.json: Add test scripts and dependencies required for e2e testing. Modify the 'scripts' section to include commands for running e2e tests.

• frontend/tests/e2e/specs/.spec.js: Create e2e test file(s) within this directory to write tests using Cypress. These tests will verify the correct functioning of the application from a user's perspective.

• frontend/tests/e2e/support/commands.js: This file can be created to define custom commands or helpers for the e2e tests.

• frontend/tests/e2e/support/index.js: Configure any additional setups or plugins for Cypress in this file.

• frontend/tests/e2e/support/variables.js: If needed, this file can be created to store and export variables used in the e2e tests.

• frontend/tests/e2e/plugins/index.js: Implement any custom plugins or modifications to Cypress behavior within this file.

• [ ] Create: frontend/cypress.json - To configure Cypress for e2e testing

• [ ] Update: frontend/package.json - To add test scripts and dependencies for e2e testing

• [ ] Create: frontend/tests/e2e/specs/<test-file>.spec.js - To create e2e test file(s) using Cypress

• [ ] Create: frontend/tests/e2e/support/commands.js - To define custom commands/helpers for e2e tests

• [ ] Create: frontend/tests/e2e/support/index.js - To configure setups/plugins for Cypress

• [ ] Create: frontend/tests/e2e/support/variables.js - To store and export variables for e2e tests

• [ ] Create: frontend/tests/e2e/plugins/index.js - To implement custom plugins/modifications for Cypress

Files required to implement the task

To set up e2e tests for the web app, we will use Cypress as the testing framework. Here are the steps to implement this task:

• [ ] Create: e2e/ - This directory will serve as the location for all e2e test files.
• [ ] Create: e2e/cypress.json - The cypress.json file will contain the configuration for Cypress tests.
• [ ] Create: e2e/integration/ - This directory will store the individual test files.
• [ ] Create: e2e/integration/app.spec.js - This is a sample test file to verify the correct functioning of the application from a user's perspective.
