Cypress 13 with e2e tests running on gitpod.io.
This way you can start up a Cypress instance without running it locally.
This is useful for demonstration purposes and potentially for collaborative cypress UI?
Warning: This is not a typical way to run Cypress and is likely not fully supported.
Originally based on cypress-on-gitpod with upgraded dependencies.
The Gitpod configuration in .gitpod.yml contains the following settings:
image: A custom Docker image to use for the development environment workspace.tasks: Two terminals, one that install dependencies and starts the development server. The other one that opens Cypress.ports: Instructions to open port6080in a new tab. This is where the Virtual Desktop runs and where you can interact with Cypress.
The .gitpod.Dockerfile:
- Uses the
gitpod/workspace-full-vncbase image, which includes a virtual desktop. - Installs the required dependencies to run Cypress.
- This is documented at https://docs.cypress.io/guides/guides/continuous-integration.html#Dependencies.
