The blog post discusses the integration of Cypress end-to-end testing with Netlify's Continuous Delivery process through the use of Build Plugins, specifically the netlify-plugin-cypress. Traditionally, deploying sites via Netlify could result in broken live versions as it lacked integrated testing capabilities, necessitating separate Continuous Integration services like CircleCI or GitHub Actions. With the introduction of Netlify's Build Plugins (Beta), users can now run Cypress tests post-build, preventing broken sites from being deployed by halting the process if errors are detected. The plugin requires minimal configuration, and users can easily enable it via the Netlify interface or by modifying the netlify.toml file. It also supports recording test results via the Cypress Dashboard by setting environment variables and adjusting plugin inputs to allow artifact recording. This streamlined approach enhances the reliability of Netlify deployments by ensuring comprehensive testing is conducted before a site goes live.
