Hey everyone! If you're building a competitor to Cypress, that's great! Competition breeds innovation. But please don't make posts like this.
At best, Endtest needs to conduct a more thorough competitive analysis. At worst, this is negligent product defamation, risks damaging people's livelihoods, and should be reported.
Cypress is free to use with any CI provider without requiring Cypress Dashboard. For OSS projects, Dashboard is free. Dashboard does assist with parallelization, but there are free open source mechanisms available to achieve this without a license as well.
Please allow me to add a few more details to make things more clear.
Cypress is somewhat of a competitor for Selenium, Puppeteer, Playwright or TestCafe, but definitely not for Endtest.
Because the way they work is completely different.
Endtest is a cloud platform for people who don't want or do not have the time to write code for their automated tests.
Cypress is a npm package for people who want to write e2e tests with JavaScript.
I just mentioned some aspects that you left out of your article.
And I mentioned them because you're describing Cypress in a very positive way without mentioning the limitations and this might give readers an incorrect perception.
When describing a solution, we should always mention the limitations.
I don't see any defamation, the facts that I have mentioned are true and can be easily verified.
Accessibility also means running on all major browsers.
