Daily Term: End-to-End Testing

End-to-End Testing

End-to-End (E2E) Testing validates the entire application workflow, simulating real user scenarios from start to finish. For example, using a tool like Cypress, a tester might automate a browser to log in, add an item to a cart, and complete a purchase on an e-commerce site. E2E testing ensures the system works as a whole, catching user-facing issues, but it’s slow, brittle, and often requires significant setup and maintenance.
