Cypress

Cypress is a next generation front end testing tool built for the modern web.

Cypress is most often compared to Selenium; however Cypress is both fundamentally and architecturally different. Cypress is not constrained by the same restrictions as Selenium.

Cypress enables you to write all types of tests:

  • End-to-end tests
  • Integration tests
  • Unit tests

Cypress can test anything that runs in a browser.

Cypress comes fully baked, batteries included. Here is a list of things it can do that no other testing framework can:

  • Time Travel: Cypress takes snapshots as your tests run. Hover over commands in the Command Log to see exactly what happened at each step.
  • Debuggability: Stop guessing why your tests are failing. Debug directly from familiar tools like Developer Tools. Our readable errors and stack traces make debugging lightning fast.
  • Automatic Waiting: Never add waits or sleeps to your tests. Cypress automatically waits for commands and assertions before moving on. No more async hell.
  • Spies, Stubs, and Clocks: Verify and control the behavior of functions, server responses, or timers. The same functionality you love from unit testing is right at your fingertips.
  • Network Traffic Control: Easily control, stub, and test edge cases without involving your server. You can stub network traffic however you like.
  • Consistent Results: Our architecture doesn’t use Selenium or WebDriver. Say hello to fast, consistent and reliable tests that are flake-free.
  • Screenshots and Videos: View screenshots taken automatically on failure, or videos of your entire test suite when run from the CLI.
  • Cross browser Testing: Run tests within Firefox and Chrome-family browsers (including Edge and Electron) locally and optimally in a Continuous Integration pipeline.

Enzyme

Enzyme is a JavaScript Testing utility for React that makes it easier to test your React Components' output. You can also manipulate, traverse, and in some ways simulate runtime given the output.

Enzyme's API is meant to be intuitive and flexible by mimicking jQuery's API for DOM manipulation and traversal.

Jasmine

Jasmine is a Behavior Driven Development testing framework for JavaScript. It does not rely on browsers, DOM, or any JavaScript framework. Thus it's suited for websites, Node.js projects, or anywhere that JavaScript can run.

PHPUnit

PHPUnit is a programmer-oriented testing framework for PHP. It is an instance of the xUnit architecture for unit testing frameworks

React Testing Library

The core library, DOM Testing Library, is a light-weight solution for testing web pages by querying and interacting with DOM nodes (whether simulated with JSDOM/Jest or in the browser). The main utilities it provides involve querying the DOM for nodes in a way that's similar to how the user finds elements on the page. In this way, the library helps ensure your tests give you confidence that your application will work when a real user uses it.

The core library has been wrapped to provide ergonomic APIs for several frameworks, including React, Angular, and Vue. There is also a plugin to use testing-library queries for end-to-end tests in Cypress and an implementation for React Native.

OWASP ZAP DAST

OWASP ZAP is an open-source web application security scanner. It is designed to be used by both developers and pentesters during the development process. OWASP ZAP provides a number of features that make it unique among web application security scanners.

OWASP ZAP’s features include the ability to intercept and modify requests, a powerful spider that can crawl complex applications, and a robust set of security checks. OWASP ZAP is also highly customizable, so it can be adapted to fit the specific needs of any organization.

Organizations can use OWASP ZAP to find and fix security vulnerabilities in their web applications before they are exploited by attackers. OWASP ZAP is an essential tool for anyone who is serious about web application security.

Storybook

Storybook is a tool for building UI components in isolation. It helps streamline the process of building and testing components and documenting their various options. It is incredibly useful for agile teams as it assists in separating the component from its context within a wider application, and provides a searchable catalogue of components already built within a project.

Storybook's sandbox allows development teams to easily develop for hard-to-reach states, and to mock various use cases for a component, and keep them all documented as stories. This record makes it easy for everyone on a product team to see how a given component should behave in any number of possible circumstances.

Why Accelerate?

We are committed to ensuring the completeness and quality in our digital products, and we believe that Storybook offers the most robust way to develop complex UIs. The ability to decouple states and data and develop and test against these without needing to mock entire pathways through an app is incredibly valuable, and Storybook's integration with testing tools makes testing our work significantly easier.
