End-to-end (E2E) testing is a technique used in software development to assess the performance of an application from a user's perspective. It tests the entire flow of an application from beginning to end, simulating user actions and interactions like clicking buttons, filling out forms, and navigating through different pages. Unlike unit tests, which focus on the functionality of individual software components, E2E testing involves testing the application as a whole to ensure that it meets user expectations and requirements.
