[@zshn]

I've worked and created enterprise level automation framework in Java using Selenium, TestNG, POM model, SerenityBDD, CucumberBDD. When I tried Cypress & Playwright, I found Cypress quick to start, offering similar depth and breadth in capabilities. I don't see myself going back to Selenium. If you're sufficiently skilled; you can automate almost everything web related in Cypress. Plus points for coding in JS/TS which has so many npm libraries which can be easily integrated.

[@abhishekkumar-jw6rl]

i feel cucumber bdd framework is very complex even for simple tasks to automate and takes lot of time and skill is needed for coding..any other alternatives?

[@zshn]

@@abhishekkumar-jw6rl Selecting CucumberBDD makes sense if the entire organization needs to standardize the automation, requirements and reporting process. For projects which are isolated and independent, Selenium with TestNg using POM approach works really well. You can integrate with majority CI/CD tools. I would however recommend you give Cypress a try. It's game changing.

[@abhishekkumar-jw6rl]

@@zshn i am mediocre in coding..and switched recently to automation project. i feel our cucumber bdd framework in current project is very complex and all we do is manual testing for releases or sprints...i dont know whats use writing such huge framework when at end of day all is done manual only..is cypress better or easy to learn compared to cucumber bdd-pom-selenium javaa??

[@zshn]

@@abhishekkumar-jw6rl Cypress definitely requires more experience. It's good that the framework you have is huge and not beneficial. The opportunity for you to make changes, improve and gain knowledge of 'how not to do' things is huge. I'd suggest you start with most critical workflows/TCs and break down larger files into smaller ones. Start by getting 20% of the tests run reliably and consistently. Show the mgmt the amount of hours you saved by optimizing. Move to lead role and focus on people & mgmt.

[@abhishekkumar-jw6rl]

@@zshn problem is no proper people to guide...i feel if i would have been good in coding definitely would have become a developer...i feel learning coding or scripting is waste of time for testers..as u know majority of cases cannot be automated..like financial transactions or verifying generated PDF reports..etc...writing hundreds or thousand lines of code just to verify simple web elements is not worthfull right??....

[@mohankumarbalakrishnan8048]

We are mainly working on API with rest assured Cucumber Java combination. Also we use IBM mq and oracle DB for validation . Is it wise to switch from rest assured to Cypress. What I observed is Cypress is mainly used for UI. As all of my Dev work happened in Java but Is it wise to test through JS based cypress for API validation.?

[@RaghavPal]

Mohan Whether or not it is wise to switch from Rest Assured to Cypress for API validation depends on your specific needs and requirements. Rest Assured is a Java-based API testing framework that is known for its simplicity and ease of use. It is a good choice for simple API testing scenarios. However, it can be difficult to use for more complex scenarios. Cypress is a JavaScript-based end-to-end testing framework that is known for its flexibility and power. It is a good choice for complex API testing scenarios, as well as for UI testing. However, it can be more difficult to learn and use than Rest Assured. If you are mainly working on API testing with Rest Assured and Cucumber Java, and you are happy with the results, then there is no need to switch to Cypress. However, if you are looking for a more powerful and flexible API testing framework, then Cypress is a good option.

[@kavyakamarthi]

Hi Raghav ! We are looking for setting up an automation framework for regression . We are upgrading our application to react pages. Can we use cypress for regression ? We already have selenium regression.

[@RaghavPal]

Kavya Yes, you can definitely use Cypress for regression testing your React application, even if you already have Selenium regression tests in place. While both are automation frameworks, they have distinct advantages and considerations for React testing: Cypress: Built specifically for modern web applications: Cypress is designed for testing single-page applications (SPAs) like React apps with its direct DOM manipulation and access to application state through DevTools. It integrates seamlessly with the browser environment, offering faster test execution and easier debugging. Command chain with assertions: Cypress utilizes a readable, single-threaded testing style with chained commands and built-in assertions. This makes test code more concise and easier to maintain compared to Selenium's step-by-step approach. Time travel debugging: Cypress allows you to "time travel" through your test steps, revisiting previous states of the application and inspecting elements during execution. This is immensely helpful for pinpointing issues. Automatic waiting: Cypress automatically waits for elements to become available before interacting with them, eliminating the need for explicit waits like Selenium's implicit Waits. This leads to more reliable and faster tests. Selenium: Wider browser compatibility: Selenium supports a broader range of browsers compared to Cypress, which currently focuses on Chrome and Chromium-based browsers. This might be important if you need to test across multiple browsers. Rich ecosystem of plugins: Selenium boasts a vast ecosystem of plugins and libraries for various functionalities and specific frameworks like React. This can be advantageous if you require specific testing capabilities not readily available in Cypress. Established framework: Selenium is a more mature and established framework with a larger community and more extensive documentation. This can be helpful for finding resources and troubleshooting issues. Migrating from Selenium to Cypress for React: Review existing tests: Evaluate your existing Selenium tests and identify those suitable for migrating to Cypress. Focus on tests specific to the React application logic and user interface. Start with simple tests: Begin by migrating straightforward tests first to get familiar with Cypress syntax and capabilities. This will help you gain confidence and build momentum for further migration. Utilize Cypress features: Leverage Cypress's unique features like time travel debugging and automatic waiting to improve your tests' speed and maintainability. Consider hybrid approach: You can maintain both Selenium and Cypress tests until you're fully comfortable with the migration. This lets you gradually transition while ensuring coverage. Conclusion: Cypress can be a valuable tool for your React regression testing, offering efficient and flexible testing with its modern features and seamless integration with SPAs. Consider reviewing your existing Selenium tests, starting with simple migrations, and utilizing Cypress's unique strengths to make a smooth transition while improving your overall testing experience. Remember, the best choice ultimately depends on your specific needs, team expertise, and desired balance between browser compatibility and framework features.

[@lokianju1373]

For beginners which one is good to choose..I have 5yrs of Manual experience and coding fear😢

[@RaghavPal]

Both Selenium and Cypress are great tools for web automation testing, but for a beginner with manual testing experience and coding fear, I would recommend starting with Cypress. Here's a breakdown of why: Cypress: Simpler Syntax: Uses JavaScript code syntax similar to natural language, making it easier to understand and write tests compared to Selenium's more technical syntax. Built-in Features: Offers built-in features like waiting mechanisms, data assertions, and network interception, reducing the need for complex coding and external libraries. Fast Feedback: Provides real-time visual feedback with screenshots and recordings of test execution, aiding in understanding test failures. Large Community: Has a large and active community with extensive documentation, tutorials, and troubleshooting resources. Selenium: More Flexibility: Offers a wider range of languages and tools for advanced customization and integrations. Cross-Browser Testing: Supports testing across various browsers, while Cypress mainly focuses on Chrome. Greater Community Support: Has a longer history and a larger overall community, potentially offering more diverse solutions and knowledge bases. However, Selenium also comes with: Steeper Learning Curve: Requires learning various languages, frameworks, and tools, which can be overwhelming for beginners. More Code Writing: Often needs more complex coding constructs and external libraries, making it less ideal for those averse to coding. Slower Feedback: Debugging test failures might involve manually analyzing logs and debugging scripts. Considering your specific situation: 5 years of manual experience: This gives you a strong understanding of web applications and testing concepts, which can be easily translated to Cypress for automation. Coding fear: Cypress's simpler syntax and built-in features can help you ease into automation gradually without extensive coding. Additional tips: Start with basic tutorials and examples: Both Cypress and Selenium have plenty of beginner-friendly resources. Practice by automating simple tasks: Focus on automating small, manageable tasks in your current testing workflow to build confidence. Join the community: Utilize the active online communities for both tools to ask questions, learn from others, and find support. Remember, the best tool for you depends on your specific needs and preferences. While Cypress is generally easier to learn for beginners, if you need cross-browser testing or extensive customization, Selenium might be a better fit in the future. Start with Cypress to overcome your coding fear, and you can always explore Selenium later if needed

[@aditisah3289]

Hi Raghav, I want to use same session across different spec, for that I am usinf testIsolation:false and also cacheAcrossSpecs: true, but still the session is not maintained, can you please let me know how to create session using cookies and maintain it across all the specs. Thanks!

[@RaghavPal]

Aditi To create a session using cookies and maintain it across all specs in Cypress, you can use the following steps: **1. Create a cookie jar** A cookie jar is a container that stores cookies. You can create a cookie jar using the following code: ```javascript const cookieJar = new Cypress.CookieJar(); ``` **2. Set the cookies** You can set cookies in the cookie jar using the following code: ```javascript cookieJar.setCookie('session_id', '1234567890'); ``` **3. Start a new Cypress spec** When you start a new Cypress spec, you can pass the cookie jar to the `cy.visit()` method. This will tell Cypress to use the cookie jar for the session. ```javascript cy.visit('example.com', { cookieJar }); ``` **4. Maintain the session across specs** To maintain the session across specs, you can use the following code: ```javascript // Get the cookie jar from the current spec. const cookieJar = cy.getCookieJar(); // Set the cookies in the cookie jar for the next spec. cookieJar.setCookie('session_id', '1234567890'); ``` You can call this code at the beginning of each spec that needs to use the existing session. Here is an example of a Cypress script that uses a cookie jar to maintain a session across specs: ```javascript // Create a cookie jar. const cookieJar = new Cypress.CookieJar(); // Set the session cookie. cookieJar.setCookie('session_id', '1234567890'); // Start a new spec and pass the cookie jar to the visit method. cy.visit('example.com', { cookieJar }); // Do some tests. // Maintain the session for the next spec. cookieJar.setCookie('session_id', '1234567890'); // Start a new spec. cy.visit('example.com', { cookieJar }); // Do some more tests. ``` This script will maintain the session across both specs, so that the user will not have to log in again.

Less job opportunities in cypress how is the future ?

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Suren The future of job opportunities in Cypress is uncertain. The current job market is tight, with many more people looking for work than there are jobs available. This is due in part to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused a number of businesses to close or reduce their workforces There are some positive signs for the future of job opportunities in Cypress. The state is home to a number of growing industries, such as technology, healthcare, and manufacturing. These industries are expected to create new jobs in the coming years However, there are also some challenges that could impact the future of job opportunities in Cypress. One challenge is the state's high cost of living. This could make it difficult for businesses to attract and retain employees. Another challenge is the state's aging population. This could lead to a decline in the number of workers available in the future Overall, the future of job opportunities in Cypress is uncertain. However, there are some positive signs that the state's economy is growing and that new jobs will be created in the coming years. Here are some tips for people who are looking for jobs in Cypress: * Network with people in your field. This is a great way to learn about job openings and to get your foot in the door. * Attend job fairs. This is another great way to meet potential employers and to learn about job openings. * Update your resume and cover letter regularly. Make sure your resume is tailored to each job you apply for. * Be prepared to interview. Practice answering common interview questions. * Don't give up. The job search can be tough, but it's important to keep trying.

How to run batch jobs in performance testing

[@RaghavPal]

Rama please specify the platform, tool, scenario

[@vemularama555]

@@RaghavPal This question comes from an interview point of view And also PT types of testing sequence order follow

[@RaghavPal]

Okay, so from a general point of view, when it comes to performance testing of batch jobs, there are specific parameters and considerations you should keep in mind. Let's explore how to approach performance testing for batch processes: 1. Throughput: - In a batch scenario, throughput is crucial. It refers to the rate at which tasks (workers or threads) can process data. - Identify how much throughput an individual worker can achieve. This helps you accurately size your production batch jobs based on batch size. - If throughput is not at an acceptable level, investigate areas such as query performance, indexes, and connection pools to improve logic and I/O efficiency 2. Endurance: - Ensure that your batch jobs can run consistently over an extended period. - Test the endurance of your system by running batch jobs with varying batch sizes. - If performance degrades as batch size increases, there might be bottlenecks that need fixing before handling large batches 3. Metrics to Collect: - Define relevant metrics to collect during performance testing. These may include: - Execution Time: Measure the time taken to process a batch. - Resource Utilization: Monitor CPU, memory, and disk usage. - Throughput: Calculate the number of records processed per unit of time. - Error Rate: Track any failures or exceptions. - Database Metrics: Check database response times, locks, and connection pool usage. 4. Test Data Setup: - Determine the test data requirements for your batch job. - Set up an isolated batch testing environment with representative data. - Consider data dependencies and methods to create test data Remember, batch performance testing focuses on throughput, endurance, and relevant metrics. By addressing these aspects, you can ensure your batch jobs perform optimally --

Once you have a basic understanding of automation, you can start practicing by writing simple scripts. 3. *Choose an automation framework.* There are many automation frameworks available, such as Selenium, Appium, and Cypress. Choose a framework that is appropriate for the type of automation that you want to do. 4. *Start practicing with real-world applications.* Once you have learned the basics of automation and chosen an automation framework, you can start practicing with real-world applications. This will help you to learn the specific challenges of automating real-world applications. Here are some additional tips: *Start small.* Don't try to automate everything at once. Start by automating small, simple tasks. Once you have mastered automating simple tasks, you can move on to more complex tasks. *Use the right tools.* There are many tools available to help you automate. Choose the tools that are right for you and your needs. *Be patient.* It takes time and practice to learn automation. Don't get discouraged if you don't get it right away. Keep practicing and learning, and you will eventually become a proficient automation tester. I hope this helps

@@RaghavPal Thank you very much ! So I need to start learning a programming language. I started 1 week ago with JavaScript, but some friend told me, that I need to stop this and learning html and CSS. Because this things, he learned 4 years ago when he shwitched to Automation. He told me that I don't need to learn a programming language. In conclusion, do I need ar not to learn a programming language ?

Having basic concepts of programming and a programming language will help you and take you long way... JavaScript is good

@@RaghavPal Thank you again for the response ! Another question: I need to learn html and CSS, beside JS ?

[@RaghavPal]

It will be good to add skills on HTML and CSS, however for creating Automation Testing Frameworks, it is not compulsory

Road map after being cypress tester for 2 years

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Suren After being a Cypress tester for 2 years, there are a number of different paths you can take. Here are a few ideas: *Move into a more senior role* As you gain more experience, you can move into a more senior role, such as a lead tester or a quality assurance engineer. In these roles, you will be responsible for managing and mentoring other testers, as well as developing and executing test strategies. *Specialize in a particular area of testing* There are a number of different areas of testing that you can specialize in, such as performance testing, security testing, or usability testing. By specializing in a particular area, you can become an expert in that area and command a higher salary *Transition into a different role within the software development lifecycle* After gaining experience as a tester, you may be interested in transitioning into a different role within the software development lifecycle. For example, you could become a developer, a product manager, or a project manager. These roles offer different challenges and opportunities, and they can be a great way to advance your career No matter which path you choose, it is important to continue learning and growing. There are a number of different ways to do this, such as attending conferences, reading books and articles, and taking online courses. By continuing to learn, you will stay up-to-date on the latest trends in testing and you will be able to make a significant contribution to your team. Here are some additional tips for progressing your career as a Cypress tester: *Get involved in the Cypress community* There are a number of different ways to get involved in the Cypress community, such as attending meetups, contributing to the open source project, or writing blog posts about Cypress. Getting involved in the community is a great way to learn from other Cypress users, share your knowledge, and build your reputation *Stay up-to-date on the latest Cypress features* Cypress is constantly being updated with new features. To stay up-to-date on the latest features, you can read the Cypress blog, follow Cypress on Twitter, or join the Cypress Slack channel *Build your skills in other areas of testing* Cypress is a powerful tool, but it is not the only tool that you need to be a successful tester. To be a well-rounded tester, you should also have skills in other areas of testing, such as manual testing, performance testing, and security testing. * **Network with other testers.** Networking with other testers is a great way to learn new things, share your knowledge, and find new opportunities. You can network with other testers by attending conferences, meetups, and online forums Hope this helps

Playwright is the future. Don’t bother with anything else.

[@RaghavPal]

Playwright is definitely a good platform and skill to add. But as I say the field we are in, we need to have multiple skill set
