Test Café is a [[Browser-based testing]] tool that is free, [[Open source]], and is particularly focused on cross-browser testing.
It is a [[NodeJS]] tool, and automation scripts are written in [[JavaScript|js]] or [[TypeScript]].
## [[Cypress]] vs Test Café
- Cypress is based on [[Mocha]], and Test Café uses its own runner.
- Cypress runs scripts in the browser, and Test Café runs in Node, which means Test Café doesn't have direct access to the DOM [^yld]
- Test Café has better cross-browser support
## Installation
`npm install -g testcafe`
