Has anyone used Cypress to perform UI functional testing in AEM sites?

[Marjia_Yeasmin_TL]

We are planning to Cypress instead of Selenium webdriver to do UI functionality testing in AEM sites. Wondering whether anyone has used it in their projects. Would be good if you can please share your insights with me. Thanks in advance.

We currently using Cypress for UI Functional Automation for AEM sites and it is working fine.

iframe and multiple tab functionality wont work and but we can do workaround for that.

Can you please refer me to those workarounds, especially for multiple tabs. I have tried to use stubs, but was not successful. This is the code I have

const editWindowUrl = <yourUrl>
cy.window().then((win) => {
const stub = cy.stub(win, "open").as("windowOpen");
});
cy.contains("Edit").click();
cy.get("@windowOpen").should("be.called");
cy.window().then((win) => {
win.location.href = editWindowUrl;
});

Thanks in advance.

Hi @igopisrinivasan, 

I'm wondering whether you would be able to share the initial AEM project set up with ui.tests modules in Cypress? Thanks in advance.

We are still struggling to make the Cypress tests execute in the pipeline. We adjusted the docker image but always run into the issue below. May you share how you build your setup to make it work?

Xvfb exited with a non zero exit code.

There was a problem spawning Xvfb.

This is likely a problem with your system, permissions, or installation of Xvfb.
