End-to-end (E2E) testing is a software validation approach that simulates realistic user scenarios throughout the entire workflow of an application. In the context of webapplications, E2E testing involves two activities: Graphic User Interface (GUI) testing, which simulates user interactions with the web app’s GUI through web browsers, and performance testing, which evaluates system workload handling. Despite its recognized importance in delivering high-quality web applications, the availability of large-scale datasets featuring real-world E2E web tests remains limited, hindering research in the field.To address this gap, we present E2EGit, a comprehensive dataset of non-trivial open-source web projects collected on GitHub that adopt E2E testing. By analyzing over 5,000 web repositories across popular programming languages (JAVA, JAVASCRIPT, TYPESCRIPT, and PYTHON), we identified 472 repositories implementing 43,670 automated Web GUI tests with popular browser automation frameworks (SELENIUM, PLAYWRIGHT, CYPRESS, PUPPETEER), and 84 repositories that featured 271 automated performance tests implemented leveraging the most popular open-source tools (JMETER, LOCUST). Among these, 13 repositories implemented both types of testing for a total of 786 Web GUI tests and 61 performance tests. DATASET DESCRIPTION The dataset is provided as an SQLite database, whose structure is illustrated in Figure 3 (in the paper), which consists of five tables, each serving a specific purpose.The repository table contains information on 1.5 million repositories collected using the SEART tool on May 4. It includes 34 fields detailing repository characteristics. Thenon_trivial_repository table is a subset of the previous one, listing repositories that passed the two filtering stages described in the pipeline. For each repository, it specifies whether it is a web repository using JAVA, JAVASCRIPT, TYPESCRIPT, or PYTHON frameworks. A repository may use multiple frameworks, with corresponding fields (e.g., is web java) set to true, ...
