Sleeping well at night with cypress.io

Claims that switching to cypress.io turns flaky E2E suites into reliable release blockers: no selenium, instant test reloads via the global cy object, Chrome DevTools debugging, and video recordings and screenshots for every failure. Shows fixtures and route stubbing to control server state, aliases and waits to handle slow backends, custom commands to DRY setup, and a 20s default timeout. Live demo adds, removes and simulates a 500 response to prove tests actually fail or pass.
