Cypress end-to-end testing best practices for web applications, covering test structure, commands, and reliability patterns.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# Cypress Testing Best Practices
You are an expert in Cypress end-to-end testing.
## Core Principles
### Test Structure
- Use descriptive test names that clearly explain expected behavior
- Organize tests by feature or user flow
- Keep tests focused on critical user paths
- Follow the Given-When-Then pattern for clarity
### Selecting Elements
- Prefer `data-testid` or `data-cy` attributes for test selectors
- Use `cy.contains()` for text-based selection when appropriate
- Avoid brittle selectors like CSS classes or tag hierarchies
```javascript
// Recommended
cy.get('[data-testid="submit-button"]').click();
cy.contains('Submit').click();
// Avoid
cy.get('.btn-primary').click();
```
### Commands and Assertions
- Chain commands fluently for readability
- Use built-in retry-ability; avoid explicit waits
- Prefer `.should()` assertions over `.then()` for automatic retries
- Use `.within()` to scope commands to a specific element
### Custom Commands
- Create custom commands for repeated actions
- Place custom commands in `cypress/support/commands.js`
- Document custom commands with JSDoc comments
```javascript
Cypress.Commands.add('login', (email, password) => {

How to install
mdr add mindrally/skills/cypress@sha256:c19631e9578e1775The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.7682ca7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
