Write Your First E2E Test in Cypress
From zero to your first green checkmark — in four simple steps. Each step includes a live animated demo 🎬
Create a Spec File
Once Cypress is installed and open in your favorite editor, create an empty spec file:
Write the describe Block
The describe block acts as a test suite. Inside it, you can write any number of test cases using it() blocks.
describe('My First Test', () => {
// it blocks and test logic go here
})
Add Your First Test
Now write an it block inside the describe block with some logic:
describe('My First Test', () => {
it('Visits a website', () => {
cy.visit('https://qa.imcseian.com/')
})
})
cy.visit() is the Cypress command used to navigate to any website URL.
Run Your Test
Save the file, open a terminal, navigate to your project path, and run:
npx cypress open
Tip: in the Cypress launcher, pick E2E Testing → choose your browser → click your spec file to watch it run.
