cypress-rails VS Open-Source-Ruby-and-Rails-Apps

We use Cypress alongside cypress-rails and Cypress Testing Library.

To piggyback: This would be a type of browser test, so you would want to use something like Cypress (https://github.com/testdouble/cypress-rails) or Capybara (https://github.com/teamcapybara/capybara). RSpec has a good integration with Capybara. Cypress is JS-based so it will require some additional config.

Now a very good news : integrating Cypress to Rails is really simple, because there's already a gem for that. Thanks to the amazing work of the teamdouble team. Their corresponding GitHub repository is here.

Some of the links mentioned in the stream: Forem end-to-end docs Cypress documentation Making your UI tests resilient to change by Kent C. Dodds Forem’s use of Cypress in GitHub Cypress Rails Test Automation University

There's already a tool that perfectly handles this kind of test : Cypress. Why not a gem based on Cypress, that would replace entirely the default system tests stack ? So far, I am very happy with this gem : https://github.com/testdouble/cypress-rails/

I'd suggest picking an open source repo and giving yourself a very simple task, like changing some text on a specific page, doubling up every row in some data-driven table, something like that. It doesn't have to be sensible, it just has to be something that forces you to learn

If you love doing hands-on project, I recommend you to look at the existing awesome Rails app. You will learn a lot, and learn what matters.

I already make a tons of awesome Ruby on Rails list here;

I also found this kind of list here on GitHub.
