End-to-End Testing with Cypress

TommiNICE commented 3 weeks ago

Hi, for my second contribution, I would like to implement end-to-end testing with the Cypress framework. That would be the first part of the contribution. The second part would be to actually write tests, but for first only for the profile page. I would open another issue for subsequent tests.

@TommiNICE , Hello! After your commit, another person made a change that caused our server to crash. I had to revert the changes back to an older state, and I believe it was due to that person's code. Could you please create a PR again so that I can merge your changes once more? Thank you!

@TommiNICE , You're one of my favorite collaborators, and I really appreciate your contributions. I strongly want to add your code back, so please create that PR again when you can.

@TommiNICE , For this issue, please outline clearly what you plan to do in the first step. Once you've provided that, you can start working on that.

I am assigning this to you!

Hi @vishalverma9572, here is a short outline about what I plan to do:

Outline: Adding Cypress End-to-End Testing to a MERN Stack Project

1. Purpose

To integrate Cypress E2E testing into a MERN stack project for ensuring reliability and functionality of critical features.

2. Reason for Adding Cypress

Ensuring User Journey Integrity: Cypress allows you to test the entire application flow (front-end and back-end), ensuring that all components of the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js) work cohesively.
Confidence in Changes: Automated E2E tests provide confidence when deploying new features or updates by catching bugs before they reach production.
Improved User Experience: Validating core features like the profile page ensures a smooth, bug-free experience for users.

3. First Test Case: Testing the Profile Page

Scenario: Test the feature that allows users to update their profile information (e.g., change name or password).

Adding additional test cases would be my third contribution.
