Can we get a node-16 executor?

[adam-lynch]

There should be an executor to run on node 16. The max is 14 according to https://circleci.com/developer/orbs/orb/cypress-io/cypress#executors.

I haven't ran into an issue yet but we've had some local issues with our postinstall scripts on node 14 so we're bumping to 16 and I want to run the Cypress job on 16 too.

See https://nodejs.org/en/about/releases/; node 16, 17, and 18 should probably be supported.

Came here to ask the same thing :)

For anyone who needs Node 16 support in the meantime, I have set our builds up to use a customised docker executor from Cypress's list here: https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-docker-images/tree/master/browsers

Example config:

version: 2.1
orbs:
  cypress: cypress-io/cypress@1.29.0
executors:
  with-chrome:
    resource_class: small
    docker:
      - image: "cypress/browsers:node16.13.0-chrome95-ff94"
workflows:
  build:
    jobs:
      - cypress/install:
          executor: with-chrome
          ....
      - [your other jobs]
          executor: with-chrome
          ....

Any update on this?

Node 16 is more than a year old already is LTS.

This was now merged. Maybe this issue can be closed.
#376

Closing this at v2.1.0 of the orb now contains this.

Thanks a lot @admah!

My tests run fine. I now see the "CertVerifyProcBuiltin" error (cypress-io/cypress#22128). I assume this is unrelated to the executor and I've only starting seeing it because my Circle cache was cleared due to changing the Node version.
