Stefano Magni, a front-end developer and advocate for testing and automation, explores the intricacies of asynchronous UI testing in his blog post. He emphasizes the challenges of using fixed sleep times in end-to-end (E2E) tests due to the variability in UI update speeds caused by factors like network state and resource availability. Magni advocates for adaptive waiting strategies that enhance test reliability and efficiency by allowing the UI to update just enough without unnecessary delays. He categorizes waiting types into page load, content, XHR requests, and custom waitings, providing examples of how various testing tools like Cypress, Puppeteer, Selenium, and TestCafé handle these. Magni highlights the importance of using these tools' built-in solutions or plugins for managing asynchronous processes while acknowledging the complexities involved, particularly for custom waitings.
