Cypress Installation

After successful installation of the needed tools, we can clone an existing project. All dependencies and Cypress will be downloaded automatically.

Precondition

correct permissions to Git repository (/qa-customer-solutions/e2e-automation.git)
installed Yarn on your PC
installed Cypress

The cleanest way

Clone the https://gitlab.pricefx.eu/qa-customer-solutions/e2e-automation repository to your local drive by running the following command in your command line :
```
git clone https://gitlab.pricefx.eu/qa-customer-solutions/e2e-automation.git
```
git clone
Step inside the newly created directory (e2e-automation) :
```
cd e2e-automation
```
go into the folder
Install all the dependencies necessary:
```
yarn install
```
yarn install

Now cypress with all dependencies should be installed and you can open cypress

yarn cypress open
  or
node_modules\.bin\cypress open
  or
node_modules\\.bin\\cypress open
  or
node_modules/.bin/cypress open

open cypress from command line

Cypress start page

Comments

you can clone repository by any git tool (or download directly in zip)
you can use different approach how to install cypress (download directly from their web, or using “npm install cypress”)
you can run cypress directly via icon, using command line is not mandatory
when it is not working, you can look at these approaches, how to install or you can ask your more senior colleague
