Installation

The first step is to install Cypress as a development dependency.

npm install cypress --save-dev

Install the django_cypress package.

pip install django_cypress

Add the django_cypress app to the INSTALLED_APPS to the settings.py file:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'django_cypress'
    ...
]

Include the URLs of the django_cypress app to the urls.py file.

urlpatterns = [
    path("", include("django_cypress.urls")),
]

Generate the Cypress boilerplate to copy over the initial boilerplate files for your Cypress tests.

python manage.py cypress_boilerplate

We have provided a e2e/example.cy.js spec for you as an example. Open Cypress.

npx cypress open

In the Cypress window that appears, select "E2E Testing," followed by "Start E2E Testing in Chrome." This action will display a list of all the specs in your application. Click on example.cy.js to execute it.
