# Example
This package is responsible for copying the `cypress/e2e` and `app` files from [`cypress-example-kitchensink`](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-example-kitchensink) into the cypress repository.
The `cypress/e2e` tests, pulled into this package from the [kitchen sink app](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-example-kitchensink), are used for scaffolding user's e2e tests in `packages/data-context` and in `npm/create-cypress-tests`.
The `app` content, pulled into this package from the [kitchen sink app](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-example-kitchensink), is published to `cypress-io/cypress` repository's Github page, [https://example.cypress.io](https://example.cypress.io).

## Major Version Bumps of Cypress
If any of the breaking changes in the next major release requires updates to Cypress commands or APIs, verify the site content in `cypress-example-kitchensink` is up-to-date and that all examples that will be scaffolded can successfully run with the breaking change.
## Using a new version of `cypress-example-kitchen-sink`
When a commit is merged into `master`, a new version of the [`cypress-example-kitchen-sink` repo](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-example-kitchensink/tree/master/cypress/e2e/2-advanced-examples) is released [automatically to npm](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-example-kitchensink/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#deployment). When this happens, you will need to update the `example`'s dependency to match the newly released version.
1. Bump the `cypress-example-kitchensink` `devDependency` within this package's [`package.json`](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/blob/develop/packages/example/package.json).
2. Run `yarn` and `yarn workspace @packages/example build` to build the app and spec files.
3. Create a new pull-request following this repo's [pull request instructions](CONTRIBUTING.md#pull-requests).
## Building
After running `yarn` you must build the app + spec files.
```bash
yarn workspace @packages/example build
```
This copies the `cypress/e2e` and files from [`cypress-example-kitchensink`](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-example-kitchensink), modifies them to point to `https://example.cypress.io` and creates the `example` tests.
## Deploying
```bash
yarn workspace @packages/example deploy
```
