I desired to learn about Cypress.io so that I'll know for myself if it's worth recommending. So far I like it!

Stated with dotnet new mvc in .Net Core 3.0 and trying out Cypress.io

Quick start https://docs.cypress.io/guides/getting-started/installing-cypress.html#System-requirements https://docs.cypress.io/guides/references/best-practices.html#article

npm install cypress --save-dev

npx cypress open

"It is impossible for Cypress to miss elements when it fires events." From https://docs.cypress.io/guides/overview/key-differences.html#Flake-resistant https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-example-recipes/

• More tied to the Cypress framework with custom actions, but it's 50% faster!

npx cypress run will record videos. See Organization below for more info.

https://docs.cypress.io/guides/references/best-practices.html#Setting-a-global-baseUrl

put inside of cypresss.json

Cypress.env('usename')

Cypress.env('password')

• files: name them well example: Registering the User.js

I created a personal org, then it says to run npx cypress run --record --key 32f80306-92eb-4c6a-b3b7-403329eb4442 and the recorded sessions will show up in my dashboard.

They also show up in the "Runs" tab of the runner. In the website, there is even a recorded video!
