Our legacy Application is developed with AngularJS(app folder in the picture) but now started with nx (Angular) for the new feature development (which is in web-apps within the app).
My question is NX by default support cypress, where as AngularJS does not support cypress. I want to add cypress at root level directly (which is on AngularJS) level and should also support XN developed features. i want to write e2e test cases that can run on jenkins pipeline once before the build.
Cypress is browser automation and is not typically specific to a development framework. It may or may not be installed in the same repo as the application code.
To use it you do need to install it, e.g. npm install cypress -D and have it in your package.json for the project you want. Or a higher level directory in the git repo. Or a separate repo. I recommend keeping it in the same repo as it encourages more use by app devs. It then becomes a dependency of the project in order to run cypress but not of the Angular application itself.
