- **Cross-Browser Support**: Test across multiple browsers for compatibility.
- **Continuous Integration**: Integrate with CI/CD pipelines for automated testing.

## Cloud Integration

This repository integrates with [Cypress Cloud](https://www.cypress.io/cloud) to enhance your testing workflow:

- **Test Recording and Debugging**: Record test runs to capture detailed logs, screenshots, and videos, facilitating efficient debugging.
- **Parallel Test Execution**: Distribute tests across multiple machines to reduce execution time and accelerate feedback loops.
- **Flake Detection**: Identify and manage flaky tests to maintain a reliable test suite.
- **Integration with CI/CD Pipelines**: Seamlessly integrate with Continuous Integration systems like GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and Bitbucket Pipelines.

## Best Practices

- Organizing Tests: Structure tests by features or components to maintain clarity and scalability. [Cypress Documentation](https://docs.cypress.io/app/get-started/why-cypress).
- Selecting Elements: Use data attributes (e.g., `data-cy`) for selecting elements to ensure selectors are resilient to changes in styling or structure. [Cypress Best Practices](https://docs.cypress.io/app/core-concepts/best-practices).
- Avoiding Flaky Tests: Implement assertions and controls to prevent tests from being flaky, ensuring consistent test outcomes. [Dev.to](https://dev.to/)
