Likelihood to Recommend
Automating a test is very easy when you start with Cypress.io. It is extremely easy to set up and use. Also, debugging a failed test is hassle-free because of its time travel feature. We can do both web UI and API testing with Cypress.io and the only prerequisite is some knowledge in Javascript.
