Tools
You need to have the following tools installed in order to use Cypress:
a) An IDE tool
Link: https://code.visualstudio.com/
tool for viewing and updating code of the tests
you can use also another editor on environment which allows you to display and edit the project (e.c. IntellIJ Idea)
b) Git
Link: https://git-scm.com/downloads
for version control of the code
could be used directly in Visual Studio Code, in command line or tool like a Sourcetree
git basics for developersGit Basics
knowledge needed for test automation:
clone, fetch, pull, stage, commit, push
create, merge branch
c) Node.js
Link: https://nodejs.org/en/
when you download cypress only as a installation file, it will work without node.js, but for clear functionality you need to have node.js installed
You can check your actual version of node.js by command “node -v” in the command line
d) Package manager
it is for installing and running plugins and dependencies for cypress tests (and cypress as well)
on your computer needs to be installed one of the package managers (Npm or Yarn)
npm is installed directly with Node.js
locally you can choose, but on the server side it is used Yarn
Link: yarn install: https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install/
install Yarn in your command line:
npm install --global yarn
