How To Run Cypress Tests In Azure DevOps Pipeline

When software developers took years to create and introduce new products to the market is long gone. Users (or consumers) today are more eager to use their favorite applications with the latest bells and whistles. However, users today don’t have the patience to work around bugs, errors, and design flaws. People have less self-control, and if your product or application doesn’t make life easier for users, they’ll leave for a better solution.

Before the advent of DevOps, software companies used the conventional ‘Waterfall’ model, which was effective for many projects like CRM and inventory management. However, it had several shortcomings. DevOps completely overpowered the traditional waterfall model.

Development teams in product organizations are constantly releasing updates, patches, bug fixes, and new features. Before rolling out the updates to all end users, operations teams have their hands full to ensure the new code functions properly. Users dislike downtime and additional errors, which can occur if the rollout process isn’t managed effectively.

In DevOps, code is reviewed and deployed much more quickly due to the collaboration between the development and operations teams. As a result, suggestions for new features and bug fixes based on user data get continuously incorporated into the development cycle. The journey each new piece of code takes, from planning to deployment to monitoring, is known as the DevOps pipeline. Every software development company needs a strong DevOps pipeline to meet customer demands and specifications.

Azure, AWS, GCP, Oracle Cloud Services, and many other cloud service providers have integrations with several open-source and enterprise automated testing tools. Cypress is the most commonly used framework that has integrations with all major cloud platforms. There are also testing platforms like LambdaTest, a cloud SaaS platform for Cypress testing that we can integrate with Azure DevOps.
