?What makes Cypress different from other web automation tools like Selenium

Cypress differs from Selenium in several key ways: Architecture: Cypress runs directly in the browser, enabling faster and more reliable testing by avoiding the WebDriver protocol used by Selenium. Developer-Friendly: It provides features like time travel debugging and real-time reloading, making it easier for developers to debug and write tests. JavaScript-Only: Cypress supports only JavaScript for writing tests, unlike Selenium, which supports multiple programming languages. Built-in Features: Cypress includes built-in support for waiting, mocking APIs, and handling asynchronous behavior, reducing the need for external libraries or configurations.

?How do you handle API testing using Cypress

Cypress makes API testing straightforward with its cy.request() command. Here’s how to handle API testing: Use cy.request() to make GET, POST, PUT, or DELETE HTTP requests to the API endpoint. Validate the response by asserting the status code, response body, or headers. Example: javascript Copy code cy.request('GET', '/api/users').then((response) => { expect(response.status).to.eq(200); expect(response.body).to.have.property('users'); }); This allows seamless integration of API and UI tests within the same Cypress test suite.
