Tic Tac Toe

While exploring the official documentation of React.js, I got an idea to create a Tic Tac Toe game since all the necessary details for the game were provided there. Consequently, I decided to apply my React.js knowledge to develop this game. Furthermore, I expanded its functionality to support multiplayer online play using socket.io, enabling users to compete with friends remotely, and also incorporated Sign-in with Google using @react-oauth/google. To ensure its reliability, I integrated end-to-end testing using Cypress, ensuring its functionality through rigorous testing. Through hands-on implementation, I gained a solid understanding of leveraging React's capabilities for efficient component rendering and dynamic state updates. Additionally, integrating Cypress for end-to-end testing provided me with insights into ensuring comprehensive test coverage and reliable functionality across the entire application.

End-to-End Testing with Cypress

To ensure the reliability and coverage of the application, I implemented end-to-end testing using Cypress. Below are screenshots of the e2e test suites and test cases:

Technologies Used

1. React.js
2. HTML, CSS, JavaScript
3. JSX (JavaScript Syntax Extension)
4. Socket.io for online mode
5. Cypress for End-to-End Testing

Creating the Tic-Tac-Toe game using React.js, incorporating socket.io for multiplayer online play, supporting both offline and online play modes, and integrating end-to-end testing with Cypress felt like going on a coding adventure where every line of code taught me something new. Throughout this process, I focused primarily on React.js, deepening my understanding of concepts like Hooks and state management in React. Additionally, I added some animations and sound effects to make this game look cooler and more attractive. This project not only strengthened my proficiency in React but also provided valuable insights into comprehensive test coverage through e2e testing. Additionally, I gained a solid understanding of socket.io and web sockets. Overall, this project wasn't just coding; it was a hands-on learning journey that significantly contributed to my growth as a web developer.
