I'm quite surprised to see the overwhelming negativity towards cypress here.

I recently started using it in a small project and I'm really enjoying myself. I mainly use cypress for high level UI testing and I mock my sever.

I found the server mock tool (route and route2) brilliant. I find the syntax for browser commands easy (visit, click, get). Using mocha with should and chai is fine.

Anyways, apart from some minor problems (you can't select a single test to run), I really love cypress. Compared to last time I used selenium, it's such a difference. Especially that cypress just seems to be one holistic package that works. Can't say the same for selenium.
