A quick sketch of how we could map the cypress.io API to something nice in Elm

ElmCypressApiExploration.elm

module Main exposing (main)

import Html


main =
    Html.text "Hello, World!"

-- API

type Alias
    = CurrentUser

e2e cy =
    describe "The Home Page"
        [ it "successfully loads" 
            [ visit "/posts/new"
            , getInput "input.post-title"
                |> typeIn "My first post"
            , elementThatContains "Submit" |> click
            , currentUrl
                |> shouldContain "/posts/my-first-post"
            , log "Almost there..."
            , getNode "h1"
                |> shouldContain "My First Post"
            ]
        , it "displays form validation"
            [ getInput "#first" |> clear
            , getForm "form" |> submit
            , getNode "#errors"
                |> shouldContain "Fist name is required"
            ]
        , it "can fetch from the API"
            [ request "/posts/3"
                |> its "body"
                |> as_ CurrentUser
            ]
        ]

suite =
    configure
        { baseUrl = "http://localhost:8080"
        }
        e2e
      
-- HELPER

    Debug.todo "Boom!"
