SPIKE - Component testing in Cypress

[vferraro-scottlogic]

Background

We have a cypress test for the screenshot functionality. the test is currently under e2e directory we want to move it under components/ or integration/

Outcomes

• understand Component Test in Cypress
• difference between Component test in cypress and React unit test
• figure out what to do with screenshot tests currently in e2e/ (move to component/ ?)

Notes

The e2e tests should cover the most obvious, important user flows
Integration tests should cover less important permutations, and interactions between different layers of our application
For example, our e2e might be As a user, I can save a layout. Integration tests related to that might be When I save a layout, I can see a screenshot of the layout and When I save a layout, I see a dialog to confirm details of the layout to be saved
