## Testing Strategies for [Timoni](https://github.com/stefanprodan/timoni)
      
      ### Overview
      
      This documentation page covers the testing strategies used in the [Timoni](https://github.com/stefanprodan/timoni) project. The project employs various testing frameworks and methodologies, including unit testing, integration testing, and end-to-end testing.
      
      ## What is **Testing Strategies**?
      
      Testing strategies refer to the approaches and methodologies used to ensure the quality and reliability of software. In the context of the Timoni project, testing strategies encompass the techniques and tools used to validate the correctness, functionality, and performance of the codebase.
      
      ## Why is **Testing Strategies** important?
      
      Testing is an essential part of software development. It helps to identify and fix bugs, ensure compatibility with various environments, and maintain the overall quality of the codebase. By employing a comprehensive testing strategy, the Timoni project can deliver a more robust and reliable product to its users.
      
      ### Testing Frameworks and Methodologies
      
      #### Unit Testing
      
      Unit testing is a testing methodology where individual components or units of the codebase are tested in isolation. The [Jest](https://jestjs.io/) testing framework is used for unit testing in Timoni.
      
      ```javascript
      // Example unit test using Jest
      test('adds 1 + 1 to equal 2', () => {
      const add = require('./add');
      expect(add(1, 1)).toBe(2);
      });
      

Integration Testing

Integration testing is a testing methodology where components are tested together to ensure they function correctly when interacting with each other. Mocha is used for integration testing in Timoni.

// Example integration test using Mocha
      const assert = require('assert');
      const calculator = require('../calculator');
      
      describe('Calculator', () => {
      it('should correctly add two numbers', () => {
      const result = calculator.add(1, 1);
      assert.equal(result, 2);
      });
      });
      

End-to-End Testing

End-to-end testing is a testing methodology where the entire application is tested as a single unit. Cypress is used for end-to-end testing in Timoni.

// Example end-to-end test using Cypress
      describe('Timoni App', () => {
      it('should display the correct message', () => {
      cy.visit('/');
      cy.get('.message').should('contain', 'Welcome to Timoni!');
      });
      });
