[Tutorial] What Are Cypress Hooks?

Cypress Hooks is the construct that helps in performing a particular set of actions before/after each test case or before/after all the test cases in the test suite. Cypress provides various hooks like before(), beforeEach(), after(), and afterEach() to execute pre and post steps.
