Fixtures and Integration

Explore how to use Cypress fixtures to stub network requests, manage static test data, and organize your test files within the integration folder. This lesson helps you create deterministic tests that handle network side effects and customize test structure for effective end-to-end testing.

When creating a test suite for a web application, we have to consider network connection fails. Any function that relies on fetching data from a server or requires sending data to the server has side effects. And side effects can easily break tests.

Our network request can come back either successfully or with a failure, or anything in between. There are just too many status codes to keep in mind. To work around this, Cypress introduces a folder called “fixtures”.
