    Everything web-based should be testable. Even our highly dynamic content-providing web application works well. Hopefully, it will get a bigger user base in the future so that one can find even more support at StackOverflow or similar forums.

    Good for simple requests, simple scripts, assertions, and small workflows. Also not bad with the Open Source version if savvy with code as you can do a lot with custom functionality.Free version has limited compatibility with scripts/projects created from the Pro version, but functionality-wise can probably be made up with coding. As such, the free version may not be too suitable for complex scripts or for those who are not familiar with coding as functionality/usability may be limited.

    Cons
    Cypress.io Inc
    • There are a lot of plugins but several of them have many errors. So Cypress.io should work integrating more features so that people should not rely on these plugins. For example, many people use cypress-cucumber-preprocessor and Cypress.io can start by integrating Gherkin support by default so that reliance in plugins are decreased.

    Execution speed and interactive debugging tool is very easy. you can make changes in the fly and test will run automatically, thus saving more time debugging your code. Can easily be intergrated to to CI/CD pipeline

    Compared to SoapUI, we have been using "light" tools like RestClient extension in Firefox, or Postman. Compared to Postman, SoapUI is more simple for WSDL / SOAP webservices, as SoapUI generate all envelop, but Postman does not. For Rest API, I think that Postman is a little above SoapUI, but not too far away.
