+[Cypress](https://www.cypress.io/) is a new front-end testing tool (end2end). It comes as a simple node package and is therefore easy to use and maintain for front-end developers and testers. Cypress has a different approach than selenium, it runs in the browser and in the same loop as the device under test.
+
+Good:
+
+* [Open source](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress)
+* [Locally installed](https://docs.cypress.io/guides/getting-started/installing-cypress.html#System-requirements)
+* Straightforward (installed via npm and all tests are written in Javascript)
+* Good [documentation](https://docs.cypress.io/guides/overview/why-cypress.html#In-a-nutshell) and learning material
+* Can be run in a [headless mode](https://docs.cypress.io/guides/guides/command-line.html#cypress-run)
+
+Not so good:
+
+* No cross-browser testing (only chrome and electron)
+* Scenarios with multiple browser tabs can not be tested
+* Relatively new test tool, though it is becoming more popular
+
+Example of a test :
+
+```js
+describe('My First Test', function() {
+  it('Visits the Kitchen Sink', function() {
+    cy.visit('https://example.cypress.io')
+
+    cy.contains('type').click()
+
+    cy.url().should('include', '/commands/actions')
+
+    cy.get('.action-email')
+      .type('fake@email.com')
+      .should('have.value', 'fake@email.com')
+  })
+})
+```
