API testing with Cypress using Swagger documentation

Hello, and welcome to my Github page! I created this repo to demonstrate simple examples of API testing using Cypress. These tests are based on the swagger documentation for the demo site called Petstore: https://petstore.swagger.io/

Installation

To get started:

1. Pre-requisite: you have node.js installed (https://nodejs.org/en/)
2. Clone this repo and run npm install in your terminal. This will install all the dependencies.
3. Launch Cypress runner by entering npx cypress open in your terminal.
4. In the Cypress runner UI, click on the petstore-api-tests.cy.js spec to run the tests. Enjoy!
