End-to-end (E2E) testing requires that many things be in just the right place for it to work as expected. In this article, I’ll walk you through all the necessary pieces of a successful E2E setup. Docker Docker is a platform that allows developers to...
For stable end-to-end (E2E) tests, we need an environment that is as isolated from the outside as possible. Reduce flakiness Flaky tests are tests that fail for reasons unrelated to your code. They make it difficult to use E2E as a reliable check fo...
In this article, we will take a look at some possible solutions to problems that appear if you adhere to the discipline of creating end to end (E2E) tests. As you continue developing an application, it will inevitably become more complicated and inc...
In this post, we will discuss the common pain point in developing an end-to-end (E2E) test suite: the flakiness. Flaky tests are tests that fail even though they should pass. Because of the complexity of an E2E, it’s unlikely to have them as stable a...
As are most questions worth asking, the answer is nuanced and could be boiled down to it depends. I’ll show you my way of thinking and where it’s coming from. Your goals and constraints are likely different, so the final conclusions can differ as wel...
