Implement End-to-End Cypress Testing for App Panel

[kc-diabeat]

Description:

We need to implement end-to-end (E2E) testing for the App Panel in using Cypress. This will help ensure that the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) components of the App Panel function correctly and as expected. The goal is to create a comprehensive suite of tests that cover the key functionalities of the app panel.

Tasks:

1. Setup Cypress in the Project:

   • Install Cypress as a dev dependency.
   • Configure Cypress with necessary settings for our environment.
   • Add Cypress scripts to package.json.

2. Define Test Scenarios:

   • Identify and list all critical user flows and interactions within the app panel that need testing.
   • Prioritize test scenarios based on user impact and complexity.

3. Write Cypress Tests:

   • Write Cypress tests for each identified scenario.
   • Ensure tests cover both positive and negative cases.
   • Use Cypress commands and assertions to interact with and verify UI elements.

4. Setup Fixtures and Data:

   • Create fixture files with necessary test data.
   • Ensure tests can run in isolation without dependency on the live environment.

5. Integrate with CI/CD Pipeline:

   • Add Cypress tests to the continuous integration (CI) pipeline to run automatically on each pull request.
   • Ensure test results are reported and accessible.

6. Documentation:

   • Document the setup process and how to run Cypress tests locally.
   • Provide guidelines for writing and maintaining Cypress tests.

Acceptance Criteria:

• Cypress is successfully set up and integrated into the project.
• Comprehensive E2E tests for the app panel are written and passing.
• Cypress tests are running automatically in the CI pipeline.
• Documentation is complete and accessible for all team members.

Additional Notes:

• Consider using Cypress plugins for improved testing capabilities.
• Ensure tests are reliable and stable, avoiding flakiness.
