Build Cypress test suites in TypeScript: E2E tests, component tests, custom commands, cy.intercept network control, cy.session login, Cypress Cloud, and CI integration. Covers retry-ability, the command queue, cross-origin flows with cy.origin, and data-driven testing with fixtures. Use when: "write E2E test in Cypress," "Cypress page object / custom command," "cy.," "cy.intercept," "Cypress component test," "Cypress Cloud," "cypress.config.ts." Not for: Playwright suites — use…
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.
What the file says
<objective> Production-grade Cypress test suites in TypeScript. The failure this prevents: tests written as if Cypress commands ran synchronously (storing `cy.get()` in a variable, `await cy.click()`), and tests that flake because they wait on `cy.wait(3000)` instead of a network alias. This skill covers the mental model (command queue, retry-ability), project structure, custom commands, network control with `cy.intercept`, component testing, cross-origin auth with `cy.origin`, and Cypress Cloud / CI integration. </objective> ## Quick Route | You need to... | Go to | |----------------|-------| | Write an E2E spec (load, intercept, assert) | Core Principles + `references/intercept-patterns.md` | | Add a typed custom command / `cy.session` login | Custom Commands + `references/config-and-commands.md` | | Mount and test a single component | Component Testing + `references/component-and-fixtures.md` | | Scaffold `cypress.config.ts` / project layout | Project Structure + `references/config-and-commands.md` | | Stub, spy, simulate errors, or poll an API | cy.intercept Patterns + `references/intercept-patterns.md` | …

How to install
mdr add petrkindlmann/qa-skills/cypress-automation@sha256:ebe5c9195aa85cf9The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0, 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.
