How GoDaddy Created A Culture of Quality Through Test Automation with Cypress

GoDaddy powers the world’s largest cloud platform dedicated to small, independent ventures, with 18 million customers worldwide and 77 million domain names under management. As GoDaddy scales to meet the demands of millions of daily users, they also needed to find a way to scale and unify their team’s efforts across engineering, QA, and operations.

As the complexity of the business grew, they found themselves struggling to make sure they were covering every potential use case. Find out how the team embraced test automation and continuous quality into their processes, changing their culture and practices from the ground up to make sure every customer has a seamless, wow experience.

Cypress is a force multiplier. Maintenance is really one of the highest costs for UI Tests. Cypress is a tremendous improvement, as it’s 75% less work to maintain the tests; in great part since a dev can easily run locally or simply watch a video and pinpoint what went wrong. It also speeds up test output, as GoDaddy has been able to write 55% more tests with a team nearly 70% smaller.
