Default Engineered Hardwood and Water Spills

Does anyone have any info or comments about how resistant engineered
hardwood is to water spills? I know it's very resistant to chaning
shape due to moisture (ie: humidity), however, I'm talking about
spilling a cup of water and not being able to clean it up for a few
hours (as an example). Will it swell up like laminate floors do and
never return to it's original shape? Or will it behave like real
hardwood and basically do nothing? Btw, my example assumes the water
landed somewhere where it can get in between the pieces of wood and
down to the bottom section of the engineered wood.

If you have info or personal experiences I'd love to hear them.

Thanks,
Harry
