This repo contains an example React App, with the tests written in Cypress.
Additionally this example app is configured to run tests in Circle CI and Travis CI.
The tests are written to be directly compared to the official TodoMVC tests.
Each test covers the same functionality found in the official TodoMVC tests but utilizes the Cypress API.
The tests are heavily commented to ease you into the Cypress API.
You can find the official TodoMVC tests we are comparing to here. And here. And here.
The steps below will take you all the way through Cypress. It is assumed you have nothing installed except for node + git.
If you get stuck, here is more help:

If you want to experiment with running this project in Continous Integration, you'll need to fork it first.
After forking this project in Github
, run these commands:
## clone this repo to a local directory
git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/cypress-example-todomvc.git
## cd into the cloned repo
cd cypress-example-todomvc
## install the node_modules
npm install
## start the local webserver
npm start
The npm start
script will spawn a webserver on port 8888
which hosts the TodoMVC app.
You can verify this by opening your browser and navigating to: http://localhost:8888
You should see the TodoMVC app up and running. We are now ready to run Cypress tests.
Follow these instructions to add the project to Cypress.
Follow these instructions to run the tests in CI.
If you use modern IDE that supports TypeScript (like VSCode), you can benefit
from Cypress type declarations included with the cypress
NPM module. Just
add @ts-check
to the spec file and configure "dummy"
tsconfig.json file and see IntelliSense over cy.<something>
commands.
If you find errors in the type documentation, please open an issue
