This article focuses on using Cypress.io as a tool for test automation. It provides information on installation, basic usage, and a Pricefx Cypress Library that includes various functionalities for testing Pricefx projects. It describes the tool from basics - from installation to basic usage. It is expected we will share our experience with the team here, so basics as installation are described so we all can start with the same baseline.

Cypress offers a more modern and user-friendly experience compared to Selenium. It provides faster test execution, simpler setup, and better support for modern web development practices like React and Angular. Additionally, Cypress has built-in features for debugging, automatic waiting, and time travel which Selenium lacks.
