Cypress - Modern Automation Testing from Scratch + Framework - Understanding the Difference Between jQuery Methods and C

The video tutorial explains the importance of understanding Cypress core concepts before writing code. It covers the use of CSS selectors and variables, and the handling of promises in Cypress. The tutorial also discusses the integration of jQuery methods with Cypress commands, emphasizing the need to manually resolve promises when using non-Cypress code. The video aims to equip viewers with the knowledge to effectively use Cypress for automation testing.

Why is it important to understand Cypress core concepts before writing code?

• To improve code execution speed

• To prevent running into problems when writing tests

• To ensure code readability

• To avoid syntax errors

What is the role of CSS selectors in Cypress?

• To style the webpage

• To select elements for testing

• To improve page load speed

• To debug JavaScript code

What happens when you introduce non-Cypress code while handling promises?

• The code runs faster

• The application may break

• The promise is ignored

• Cypress automatically resolves the promise

How can you manually resolve a promise in Cypress?

• By using the 'await' keyword

• By using the 'then' method

• By using the 'async' keyword

• By using the 'resolve' function

What is the consequence of not resolving a promise in Cypress?

• The application crashes

• The promise is returned without being resolved

• The code execution is paused

• The promise is automatically resolved

What should you do if you want to use a non-Cypress method in your test?

• Avoid using it

• Manually resolve the promise

• Convert it to a Cypress command

• Use it directly without changes

What is the benefit of using Cypress commands over non-Cypress methods?

• They are faster

• They automatically handle promises

• They are more readable

• They are easier to write

What is the main difference between Cypress and jQuery methods?

• Cypress methods can handle promises automatically

• jQuery methods are easier to use

• jQuery methods are not supported in Cypress

• Cypress methods are faster

Why is the 'text' method not a Cypress command?

• It is a jQuery method

• It is deprecated

• It is a CSS method

• It is a JavaScript method

How does Cypress support jQuery methods?

• By rewriting them in JavaScript

• By converting them to Cypress commands

• By providing a compatibility layer

• By allowing direct use of jQuery methods
