Cypress keeps its core small, but it has a rich official and community plugin ecosystem around it: Cypress Cloud for cloud recording/parallelization, cypress-axe for accessibility, Testing Library for more meaningful selectors, Percy/Applitools for visual regression, and mochawesome for CI reporting.

Micro Lab: Cypress — Command chaining

Replace the TODO line with the critical line from the expected solution. This is not a real runtime; the goal is to reinforce writing the correct structure in a controlled way.

Step by Step: Cypress — Command chaining

Select with cy.get()

Select the target element with cy.get(locator)

Chain the action command: .click() / .type("text") / .select("option")

Cypress auto-retries — if command does not succeed within 4s it fails

Verify DOM change with .should("have.value", "text")

Run the same chain in CI with a different viewport, check responsive behavior

What is the Cypress UI interaction and verification order?
