Cypress course in Spanish from scratch: review

Our analysis

Bootcamp Cypress en español is a very practical option for learning to build a complete web test automation framework, not just to write isolated tests. We would recommend it because, according to its description, it shows errors and flakiness problems as they appear and how they get solved, something few courses teach.

Who it is for

• Manual testers who want to move into automation.
• Automation engineers who already use another tool, such as Selenium, and want to switch to Cypress.
• Frontend developers who need end-to-end tests for their applications.

What it covers

• Core Cypress and automation concepts, starting with selectors.
• The Page Object Model pattern for organizing test code.
• Building a framework step by step from manual test cases generated with ChatGPT for the demoblaze practice site.
• Running tests in parallel and from remote environments.
• Continuous integration with AWS CodeBuild.
• HTML test reports with Allure.

What to keep in mind

• The course is taught in Spanish.
• Cypress tests are written in JavaScript. The description does not list it as a requirement, but knowing the basics of the language will make you progress much faster.
• Continuous integration is shown with AWS CodeBuild. If your team uses GitHub Actions, GitLab CI or Jenkins, you will need to adapt that part.
• Debugging sessions are presented unedited. That is valuable for learning how to diagnose failures, but some lessons may feel slower.

Where it fits in a path

Before this course, it helps to know JavaScript fundamentals and how a web page is built; the "Web developer roadmap" covers that foundation. If you work with Angular applications, our guide "How to learn Angular" helps you understand what you are testing and write more stable selectors. Afterwards, add API testing, for example with Postman, so you cover the backend too. And if you want to better understand the continuous integration pipeline built in the course, the "AWS Cloud Practitioner certification" guide is a reasonable foundation on AWS services.
