• NodeJS on your machine
• A Github repo to run the actions in

1. Install Cypress
   • Open the repo locally and in it run npm init() with default settings
   • Run npm install cypress --save-dev to install cypress in node project
   • You can now run npx cypress open to open the local tool (useful for writing and debugging tests)
2. Write a Test Spec and Push everything except node_modules, cypress/videos, cypress/screenshots
3. Create a GitHub Action using the Simple workflow template
   • Add the following code to the *.yml:

name: Cypress Tests using Cypress Docker Image
on: [push]
jobs:
  cypress-run:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    container: cypress/browsers:node12.18.3-chrome87-ff82
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Cypress run
        uses: cypress-io/github-action@v2
        with:
          # Specify Browser since container image is compile with Firefox
          browser: chrome
          record: true
        env:
          CYPRESS_RECORD_KEY: ${{ secrets.CYPRESS_RECORD_KEY }}
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

4. Login to the Cypress Dashboard and follow the steps to get your Record Key
5. Create a GitHub Secret named CYPRESS_RECORD_KEY
6. Add the ProjectID from the Cypress Dashboard to cypress.json

Now you should see the GitHub action running the tests on every push to the repo and in the Dashboard you can checkout the results + videos/screenshots and analytics
