      In the case of this video, you explained all types of tests very simply, even though I have several years of experience as a QA, I knew what each type of test was, but I wouldn't present it in such a fun and accessible way as you. And as for your channel, it is absolutely amazing. For me personally, this channel is possible development opportunities that I strive for (let's call it being in the top 10% of the best quality assurance specialists), and your series with the best people from the industry and their work and perspective gives me incredible motivation to learn and shows how long the road still lies ahead of me 🥲💪

    TDD is great, until your input shape changes or requirements change multiple times. I spent no less than 20 hours just reworking tests because a data shape we were getting from a vendor kept changing as they were developing it in tandem for us. Meanwhile the code tweaks were easy enough to make and only took 1-3 hours by comparison.

    80th...Hi, just a quick question. I have installed an IDE ( Visual Studio Code) and Node JS. And installed cypress using the commands. We have done some proxy setup to install the cypress. npm config set proxy <value> npm config set https-proxy <value> When I used an external link (e.g. google, yahoo) the cy.visit() is working. It is not working when I tried running an internal URL/link. It says "Cypress could not verify that this server is running" Can you please advise on what to do here please or create a new video please if possible?
