7: Cypress, the Deep-Dive expect(Exception)

Vanessa and Tobi T. are diving deep into the beloved End-to-End testing framework Cypress, together with Priyanka Kore and Tobias Struckmeier. 

Tobias S. is an official Cypress Ambassador and also organizes the first Cypress Meetup in Germany.

Long-awaited answers to questions like, "On which data should I grab on? id, data-*, test-id, ...", "When should I bring in e2e-tests?", "Are there more UI-driven ways to create e2e-tests?" are finally clarified, and you will also get a glimpse of some pretty amazing stuff that is currently experimental within Cypress. 

If you are entirely new to Cypress, don't miss to check out our previous episode about the basics!
