Cypress is an end-to-end testing framework designed for modern web applications for enhancing the efficiency, reliability, and user experience of automated functional testing. Unlike traditional testing tools that operate outside the browser, Cypress runs directly inside it, enabling more consistent real-time interactions and observations. Key benefits for automated functional testing include:

• Real-time Feedback: Instantly see test results and debug directly in the browser.
• Automatic Waiting: Cypress auto-waits for elements, reducing flakiness.
• Time Travel: Snapshot the DOM at different stages to understand test progress.
• Parallel Execution: Speeds up test runs by distributing tests across machines.
• Rich Ecosystem: Comes with mocking, stubbing, and network interception capabilities.
• Comprehensive Documentation: Simplifies learning and adoption.
• Cross-browser Testing: Ensures app compatibility across different browsers.
