  • Cypress Component Testing vs Storybook Interaction Testing
    1 project | /r/javascript | 7 Nov 2021
    I maintain an open source React component library which heavily uses Cypress component tests and I really enjoy it. The component's behavior is heavily based on being able to load and play videos, so Jest was completely out of the question without having to do ridiculous amounts of mocking. I've had to really push Cypress to the absolute limits of what it can do and some tests are a little flakier than I'd like as a result, but there's just nothing else out there that can really compete. I haven't tried Storybook yet but it looks incredibly interesting, hopefully I'll get a chance to give that a shot soon
