In this tutorial, we will create some E2E tests in JavaScript using TestCafé.
TestCafé is a Node.js utility for E2E testing that does not use Selenium WebDriver; it uses a proxy mechanism instead. Some of its features include the ability to handle automatically the wait times of page loads/XHR requests for stabler tests.
...
TestCafé is not just an automation library; it's a complete testing tool that provides assertions and a runner, to implement and run the tests.
Requirements
- TestCafé
- testcafe-reporter-xunit module
- testcafe-browser-provider-saucelabs module (if using Sauce Labs)
testcafe-browser-provider-browserstack module (if using BrowserStack)
...
Running tests using cloud providers
Tests can easily be run using different cloud providers and it's possible to generate a JUnit XML report with the results on a per test basis.
Both in BrowserStack and in Sauce Labs backoffice only a session/test will appear though.
To run them in the cloud using BrowserStack, the command line would be something like this (BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME and BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY environment variables would need to be defined beforehand):
| No Format |
|---|
testcafe "browserstack:Chrome@66.0:Windows 10" test1.js test2.js --reporter xunit > results.xml |
To run them in the cloud using Sauce Labs, the command line would be something like this (SAUCE_USERNAME and SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY environment variables would need to be defined beforehand):
| No Format |
|---|
testcafe "saucelabs:Chrome@66.0:Windows 10" test1.js test2.js --reporter xunit > results.xml |
