Cypress Training Advent Lesson Day 16
Make the tests simpler by stubbing the network calls 🗡
Let’s solve the first bonus lesson “Bonus 1: The server returns zero or more fruits“ from the Network Testing course. Once you solve the original assignment, think about how you can get rid of the IF/ELSE condition based on the random server data.
Hmm, if the course has 30 main lessons and 60 bonus lessons, should I have planned better?!
