The junior engineers on my team are more enthusiastic about Cypress than any other single technology we work with. It has great ergonomics.



As someone who has recent been looking to learn either selenium or puppeteer, I'm surprised to not heard of this during my research into relevant tools. Would you mind helping me briefly weigh the pros and cons of each? Cheers.


To put it simply, its developer experience is highly-polished


Check out testcafe


It has the sexiness factor right now, especially in the southeast.


Tech is hot by clusters in the US?


Absolutely. Angular / React was very much an east coast / west coast thing for awhile, as one example.

Cypress was officed at ATDC at Georgia Tech (now downtown), so a lot of companies and startups in metro Atlanta adopted it and helped it take off. Further, any student from GT or SPSU trying to intern through ATDC (and probably ATV) would have been at least tangentially exposed to it, meaning these new grads / young devs got exposed early enough in their careers as to be impressionable, and more likely to adopt something new. It also helps to adopt a technology when you're three doors down from the devs.


Interesting. I immediately thought asia.
