What this session is about
We will walk through reliable end-to-end auth flows in Cypress using real OIDC/PKCE and Amazon Cognito, plus some pragmatic mocking. The session is part of the Cypress Ambassador community program and promoted by Cypress, with a focus on battle-tested patterns rather than marketing slides.
Lock down auth flows
See a full OIDC/PKCE login flow running in Cypress against Cognito, without mystery redirects or 401s.
Cut flaky tests
Learn patterns for handling redirects, tokens, and session refresh so auth stops being the flaky test magnet.
Know what to stub
Understand which calls should hit real providers and which should be mocked to keep tests fast and reliable.
Leave with templates
Walk away with copy-pasteable examples and a mental checklist you can reuse in your own CI pipelines.
