Case Study: Spotahome achieves 83% faster test execution with Cypress

Spotahome reduces test execution time by 83% with Cypress

Spotahome, a company digitizing the home rental process, faced significant testing challenges that hindered its rapid growth and deployment schedule. Their initial Selenium-based tests were slow, flaky, and offered low feature coverage, which was a major obstacle for a team conducting up to 250 weekly deployments. To maintain platform reliability and accelerate feature delivery, they needed a better solution and turned to the testing tools from Cypress.

By implementing Cypress, Spotahome achieved a seamless integration into its JavaScript environment and greatly improved developer onboarding. The solution from Cypress enabled parallelization and provided centralized results via Cypress Cloud, leading to an 83% decrease in test execution time. This empowered developers to contribute to testing and helped establish a comprehensive quality assurance process, giving the team confidence in their platform's quality as they expand across Europe.
