Cypress Parallel Testing: A Step-by-Step Tutorial with Code Examples
Cypress is a popular tool that is used for front-end testing in a simple manner, enabling easy execution of the tests. One feature of Cypress that can help you enhance the speed and efficiency of your test execution is running tests in parallel. In this article, we will dive into the details of executing tests in parallel using Cypress. We will first discuss parallel testing and then talk about how we can implement parallel testing in our Cypress automation tests. What is Parallel Testing? Parallel testing is a technique to execute the tests in parallel across multiple threads or processes. This technique allows for the concurrent execution of tests, in a distributed manner, rather than the sequential run. Parallel execution can be achieved by splitting the tests in multiple batches. These batches are assigned to different threads so that they can execute concurrently in isolation from each other. By following the approach, the overall test execution time is divided b...
