Released 5/9/2022

Bugfixes:

• Cypress can now launch on systems where Firefox is installed via Snapcraft.
  Fixed #​19793.
• Updates were made to ensure XHR calls are properly displaying the response
  body in the command log. Fixed
  #​21361.
• Fixed cy.contains() and
  .should('contain', ...) to handle finding text that
  contains backslash characters. Fixed
  #​19116
• Updated .type('{enter}') to support sending the Enter
  keystroke to submit buttons that are not rendered within a form html element,
  but are associated with a form via the form attribute. Fixed
  #​21163.
• Fixed an issue with cy.session() such that re-running tests in open mode
  will now correctly recreate a session. Before this change, an error was thrown
  indicating the saved setup function was not a function because it was
  serialized. Fixed
  #​17805.

v9.6.0

Compare Source

Released 4/25/2022

Features:

• Now you can easily test multi-domain workflows by using the experimental
  cy.origin() command. This feature allows you to test
  across different origins or domains within a single test. This experiment was
  designed to work side-by-side with the cy.session()
  experimental feature. You can turn on use of this command by setting the
  experimentalSessionAndOrigin configuration
  option to true. For more details, read
  our blog post.
  Addressed #​17336 and
  #​944.
  • Added a new configuration option called experimentalSessionAndOrigin. This
    option enables support for cy.session() and
    cy.origin().
  • The experimentalSessionSupport configuration option has been removed and
    replaced by the experimentalSessionAndOrigin configuration option. Please
    update your configuration to use the new experimentalSessionAndOrigin
    option to continue to opt-in to this experimental feature.
  • When experimentalSessionAndOrigin is enabled, cross-origin requests will
    no longer immediately fail, but instead, time out based on the
    pageLoadTimeout
    configuration. This allows the request to be appropriately handled by the
    cy.origin() command.
  • When experimentalSessionAndOrigin is enabled, Cypress will no longer wait
    on page loads between hooks before moving on to the next test.

Bugfixes:

• Fixed an issue with Firefox 98+ where the Enter keystroke was not being sent
  to an input element when using .type('{enter}'). Fixed
  #​21033.
• We now verify if an interruption while running tests was signaled by the user
  or if it came from an error in a plugin before showing the error message.
  Fixed #​21010.
• Improved the error message observed on Windows platforms when unzipping the
  Cypress binary and the max file length is exceeded. Fixed in
  #​21047.
• Updated the Cypress.Commands.add() TypeScript types to better reflect the
  attributes of the .add() utility and the JQuery element, a possible previous
  subject type. #​20376.

Dependency Updates:

• Upgraded electron dependency from 15.3.5 to 15.5.1 to consume fixes
  related to
  improve performance on
  macOS Big Sur and later. Addressed
  #​21068.

v9.5.4

Compare Source

Released 4/11/2022

Bugfixes:

• Updates were made to silence Electron warnings related to being unable to
  connect to dbus. These errors are normal and expected, and do not result in
  test failures. Because they are always present when running Electron inside
  docker containers, it has incorrectly led people to believe it is the
  root-cause of an error within their test run. By silencing these errors, it
  will improve the debug experience to allow users to focus on meaningful
  warning and error messages. Fixed
  #​19299.
• Updates were made to ensure that all *.enable events are sent if Cypress
  becomes disconnected from the Chrome DevTools Protocol and must re-establish a
  connection to ensure all command logs are displayed to the user. This fixes an
  issue where some command logs, like download or network events, are missing
  once Cypress has disconnected and then reconnected to the Chrome DevTools
  Protocol. Fixed #​20618.
• Fixed an issue where cy.type('{enter}') was not sending the Enter key for
  Firefox v98+. This was not an issue with Firefox v97 and below. Fixed
  #​20562.
• Fixed a regression in 9.3.0 where glob
  patterns provided to the --spec CLI parameter was incorrectly splitting the
  patterns in unexpected places when it should have split on commas. Fixes
  #​20794.
• Fixed an issue with cy.root() to respect the
  timeout option passed to the command.
  Previously, when the timeout option was provided, it was ignored and the
  default timeout was used. Fixed
  #​19985.
• Updates were made to decrease the length of the Cypress cache path for Windows
  to ensure
  installing pre-release versions
  of the Cypress binary are within the maximum path length of 260 characters.
  Fixed in #​20961.
• Fixed a regression in 8.6.0 which
  prevented .pause() from correctly executing when passing the
  --headed --no-exit CLI flags to cypress run. Fixed
  #​20745.
• Fixed a regression in 9.2.0 which would
  sometimes throw an expected error on navigation with cy.back() and
  cy.go(). Fixed #​19749
  and #​20539.
• Corrected the Typescript type for a cookie which was incorrectly typed as
  any when the correct type is Cookie. Fixed in
  #​20513.
• Added the missing Cypress.Command.addAll() Typescript types. Fixed
  #​18886.
• Fixed an uncommon error observed in cy.session() where an error was thrown
  when no cookies had been set for the session and the user clicks the session
  command log to view additional details in the DevTools console. Fixed in
  #​20946.

Misc:

• A minor visual update was made to the cy.session() command log visuals.
  Fixed #​20433.

Dependency Updates:

• Upgraded ansi-regex dependency from 4.1.0 to 4.1.1 to address the
  CVE-2021-3807 NVD security
  vulnerability. Addressed in
  #​20807.
• Upgraded plist dependency from 3.0.4 to 3.0.5 to address the
  CVE-2022-22912 NVD security
  vulnerability. Addressed in
  #​20808.

v9.5.3

Compare Source

Released 3/28/2022

Bugfixes:

• Corrected a logging issue with cy.intercept() where the response status code
  and response body were sometimes missing from the log details in open mode.
  Fixed #​18757.
• Fixed an issue in cy.readFile() where the command would not retry or provide
  a meaningful error message if null encoding was used and the file was not
  found. Fixed #​20683.
• Updated the Cypress Keyboard shortcuts to only run the shortcut when the
  pressed shortcut key was not used in conjunction with either the alt,
  ctrl, or shift modifier keys. This fixed an issue where the Cypress
  shortcut handler would override the browser native keyboard shortcut for
  search (ctrl + f). Fixed
  #​20222.
• Updates were made to correctly escape dollar signs in the
  CYPRESS_DOWNLOAD_PATH_TEMPLATE environment variable. Issues were seen
  utilizing this template when the env was provided from a package manager file.
  Fixed #​19914.
• Fix the Cypress.Buffer TypeScript type to reference the static constructor
  of Buffer, instead of incorrectly referencing the Buffer instance which
  caused Type errors. Fixes
  #​20542.

Dependency Updates:

• Upgraded electron dependency from 15.3.4 to 15.3.5 to address the
  CVE-2022-21718 NVD security
  vulnerability. Addressed in
  #​20750.
• Upgraded minimist dependency from 1.2.5 to 1.2.6. Addressed in
  #​20756.
• Upgraded nanoid dependency from 3.1.20 to 3.1.31 to address the
  CVE-2021-23566 NVD security
  vulnerability. Addressed in
  #​20726.
• Upgraded node-forge dependency from 1.0.0 to 1.3.0 to address the
  CVE-2022-24771 NVD security
  vulnerability. Addressed in
  #​20727.

v9.5.2

Compare Source

Released 3/14/2022

Bugfixes:

• Fixed an issue with .type() where click events could be fired on the
  incorrect target element because the target focus changed within a key-down
  event handler callback. Fixed in
  #​20525.
• Fixed a regression in 9.5.0 where ANSI
  colors were not removed from the FireFox warning message about the
  chromeWebSecurity configuration option having no effect on the Firefox
  browser. Fixes #​20496.
• Updates were made to the pre-release build setup such that Cypress will use a
  unique cache folder for each
  pre-release installation
  on a machine. This removes the need to run cypress clear cache before
  installing a new pre-release version of Cypress or before installing a new
  released version of Cypress after a pre-release version had been installed.
  Addressed in #​20296.

Misc:

• Updates were made to explicitly disable the Origin-Agent-Cluster header for
  proxied responses to ensure document.domain can continue to be set with
  Chrome v106+. This was necessary because Chrome is planning to make
  document.domain immutable
  in v106+ to relax the same-origin policy by interpreting the
  Origin-Agent-Cluster as true, whereas it is currently interpreted as
  false. Addresses
  #​20147.

Dependency Updates:

• Upgraded url-parse dependency from 1.5.6 to 1.5.9 to address these NVD
  security vulnerabilities,
  CVE-2022-0639,
  CVE-2022-0686 and
  CVE-2022-0691. Addressed in
  #​20386 and
  #​20439.

v9.5.1

Compare Source

Released 2/28/2022

Bugfixes:

• Added a ready event to the Plugins process to ensure all plugins have
  successfully started before the configuration is loaded and the tests start.
  Fixed in #​19792.
  • This fixes an issue where the plugin is never executed and leaves Cypress
    stuck in the initialization phase, where the user can only view the loading
    spinner.
  • This enables support for node's experimental --loader flag for plugins.
• Made a change to the DNS lookup to improve test performances and reliability
  on MacOS machines that leverage the VMWare CBCloud SaaS solution. Before this
  change, random test failures were observed, as well as hanging tests and
  initially pending HTTP and HTTPS responses. Fixed in
  #​20062.
• Fixed a regression in 9.5.0 where ANSI
  colors were not removed from the cy.fixtures() error code frame. Fixes
  #​20208.
• Fixed a regression in 9.5.0 where the
  test config override errors were formatted incorrectly. Fixes
  #​20208.
• Fixed an issue where Cypress would throw an error when reporting or wrapping
  errors with booleans or numbers. Fixes
  #​19561.

Dependency Updates:

• Upgraded url-parse dependency from 1.5.2 to 1.5.6 to avoid authorization
  bypass through user-controlled key to address this
  NVD security vulnerability.
  Addressed in #​20270.

v9.5.0

Compare Source

Released 2/15/2022

Features:

• Enhancements were made to the error experience in both run mode and open mode
  to improve readability and provide meaningful stack traces. Addressed in
  #​20124.
• Updated the cy.request() log message to hide the origin when it matched the
  browser origin to make debugging easier. This reduces the length of the log
  message that could be partially hidden if a long url is requested. Addressed
  in #​20009.
• Updates were made to log the ShadowRoot and Document elements as HTML
  elements. Previously these would be logged as enumerated objects, which were
  difficult to evaluate. Addressed in
  #​20049.
• Updated the terminal output generated in Cypress run mode to de-emphasis the
  node path in the run header. Addressed in
  #​20120.

Bugfixes:

• Fixed an issue where files attached during .selectFile() could have the
  wrong File prototype. Fixes
  #​20003.
• Updated .select() to only dispatch the change and input events when the
  selected option is not the currently selected option. This change aligns
  .select() with the browser. Fixes
  #​19494.
• Updated .type(' ') to align with the W3C standards where a click event
  should be dispatched when the Space key is pressed and the current focus is on
  a state-changing element with type button, image, submit or reset.
  Fixes #​20067.

v9.4.1

Compare Source

Released 1/31/2022

Bugfixes:

• Fixed a regression in 9.4.0 where the
  line endings in the public NPM package prevented some users from running
  Cypress. Fixes #​19986.

v9.4.0

Compare Source

Released 1/31/2022

Features

• Enhancements were made to .selectFile() after receiving feedback after its
  initial release in 9.3.0.
  • The default behavior was updated to automatically infer the mime type of
    files based on their extension to correctly encode file uploads. Addressed
    in #​19751.
  • Added the mimeType property so you can explicitly set the mime type on
    files using the mimeType property. Addressed in
    #​19751.
  • Updated file contents types to allow either a
    TypedArray
    instance or a Cypress.Buffer instance, where previously file contents were
    expected to only be an instance of Cypress.Buffer. Addressed in
    #​19751.
  • Updated .selectFile() to retain the fileName of files read from disk to
    work with aliases. Addressed in
    #​19803.

Bugfixes:

• Fixed a regression in 9.3.0 to correctly
  parse the --spec CLI parameter for glob patterns containing a range. Fixes
  #​19783.
• Fixed regression in 9.2.1 where the
  --openssl-legacy-provider flag was not being passed to the plugins' child
  process when the user's system Node version was Node 17+ built with OpenSSL
  v3+ which resulted in Cypress crashing when trying to run tests. Fixes
  #​19712.
• Update cy.type('{enter}') to align with the W3C standards where a click
  event should be dispatched when the Enter key is pressed and the current focus
  is on astate-changing element with type button, image, submit or
  reset. Fixes #​19541.

v9.3.1

Compare Source

Released 1/19/2022

Bugfixes:

• Fixed an issue where the bin file was released with windows line breaks. Fixes
  #​19747.

v9.3.0

Compare Source

Released 1/18/2022

Features:

• Added a new Cypress command, called
  .selectFile(), to select a file or files in an
  HTML5 input element or simulate dragging a file or files into the browser. The
  API is similar to cypress-file-upload and we have provided a
  migration guide
  for previous users of that plugin. For more details, see
  our blog post.
  Fixes #​19524 and
  #​170.
• Exposed the Buffer polyfill, as Cypress.Buffer,
  to enable working with binary data. Addressed in
  #​19524.
• Added the CYPRESS_DOWNLOAD_PATH_TEMPLATE environment variable which can be
  set to a string template for building the download URL for the Cypress binary.
  This environment variable is useful for users who are downloading the Cypress
  binary from a proxy that is not one-to-one with the Cypress's default download
  url. More information can be found in the
  Install Binary
  documentation. Fixes
  #​15697.

Bugfixes:

• Fixed an issue where the --spec CLI parameter was not working properly when
  passing multiple glob patterns that are separated by commas. Fixes
  #​16102.
• Fixed an issue with how the CYPRESS_VERIFY_TIMEOUT environment variable was
  read so it can set in a project's package.json or it's .npmrc. Fixes
  #​19559.

Dependency Updates:

• Upgraded graceful-fs from 4.2.0 to 4.2.9. This upgrade resolves issues
  observed with using graceful-fs v4.2.0 with resolve v1.21+. Addressed in
  #​19676 and resolves
  #​19610.
  • NOTE: This upgrade to graceful-fs breaks Cypress's compatibility with
    Yarn 2. We have observed errors with Yarn 2.4.2 with graceful-fs 4.2.9.
    Before this change, Cypress had minimal Yarn 2 support (see
    #​6377). Between Yarn 3
    fixing multiple bugs and the migration path from Yarn 2 to Yarn 3 being
    minimal, we felt the best step forward was to support and recommend Yarn 3
    over Yarn 2.
• Upgraded electron from 15.2.0 to 15.3.4. Addressed in
  #​19351.

v9.2.1

Compare Source

Released 1/10/2022

Bugfixes:

• Fixed a regression in 9.2.0 to keep
  Cypress open after each spec finishes when the --headed --no-exit flags are
  passed to cypress run. Fixes
  #​19485.
• Improve heuristic for verifying when the --openssl-legacy-provider option
  should be passed to the plugins' child process when the system Node version is
  v17+. This prevents Cypress from crashing when a user has Node 17 installed
  which was built with OpenSSL v1. Fixes
  #​19320.
• Correctly cast the CYPRESS_VERIFY_TIMEOUT environment variable as a number
  so Cypress will no longer throw
  TypeError: Expected the timeout option to be a non-negative integer. Fixes
  #​19476.

Dependency Updates:

• Update pinned resolution of cli-table3 from ~0.6.0 to ~0.6.1 to avoid
  problems with the bug introduced in the
  colors.js v1.4.44-liberty-2 release.
  Addresses #​19624.

v9.2.0

Compare Source

Released 12/20/2021

Features:

• Cypress will throw an error when a user attempts to update a configuration
  value at run-time using either the Test Configuration or using
  Cypress.config() that is a
  readonly option.
  Addresses #​6407 and
  #​19001.
• A timeout option has been added to the cy.writeFile() command, with a
  default value of defaultCommandTimeout. Addresses
  #​3350.
• The default maxHttpBufferSize for the internal socket server has been
  increased to
  Node's maximum Buffer size
  (size varies by OS) to allow large file writes with cy.writeFile().
  Addresses #​19140.
• Add CYPRESS_VERIFY_TIMEOUT environment variable to override the timeout
  duration of the verify command. Addresses
  #​18290.

Bugfixes:

• Prevent unnecessary snapshotting when running default assertions that would
  unnecessarily increase CPU use in cypress open mode which lead to out of
  memory crashes on certain browsers. Fixes
  #​18549.
• Removed automatic retries for failed HTTP requests through the proxy. This
  fixes an issue where failed requests could be re-sent too many times in some
  conditions. This change could increase the number of failed requests that your
  app sees. Fixes #​19043.
• Reduced the occurrence of an issue where logs for fetch and xhr requests
  could be associated with the wrong request. Fixes
  #​19043.
• Tests that are skipped within then blocks will no longer throw errors
  causing the test to fail. Tests that are skipped outside of then blocks will
  no longer trigger the fail event. This will prevent screenshots from happening
  from errors thrown by the fail event.Fixes
  #​14867 and
  #​17660.
• Fixed a regression in 9.0.0 where a
  fixture provided in a static response to cy.intercept() did not support
  passing null to encoding to read the fixture as a Buffer. This identified an
  undocumented 9.0.0 Breaking Change where the default read behavior of a
  fixture changed from a Buffer to being read with utf8 encoding. Fixes
  #​19344.
• Fixed a regression in 9.0.0 where
  cy.contains() attempted to ignore <script> and <style> elements found
  within <body>. by deleting them from the dom. This behavior was corrected to
  ignore the elements without deleting them. Fixes
  #​19377.
• Cypress will no longer crash when proxying an ill formed request. For example,
  if the application under test has a resource of "http: //localhost/asset.js"
  (notice the extraneous space), Cypress will now log a debug message and the
  asset will fail to load. Fixes
  #​9220.
• Correct Cypress.Command.add() and Cypress.Command.override() TypeScript
  types. Fixes #​18879,
  #​19095 and
  #​18940.
  • Custom command implementations typings take into account prevSubject
    variants.
  • Custom command implementations now allows to NOT return a value.
  • Custom command overwrites typings take into account originalFn function.
• Add types for Cypress.session.clearAllSavedSessions(). Fixes
  #​19363.

Dependencies:

• Upgraded ssri from 6.0.1 to 6.0.2 to mitigate
  ssri vulnerability. Addressed in
  #​19351.

v9.1.1

Compare Source

Released 12/03/2021

Bugfixes:

• Fixed a regression in 9.1.0 where our
  built binary didn't contain patches to some dependencies. Addressed in
  #​19239. This fixed some
  issues including:
  • Requests containing ~ will no longer be improperly encoded. Fixes
    #​19083,
    #​19084,
    #​19115,
    #​19096,
    #​19178.
  • A TypeError displaying data.hasOwnProperty is not a function will no
    longer throw in some situations. Fixes
    #​19091.
  • Empty extra hooks will no longer be sent as data when recording to the
    Dashboard. Fixes
    #​19087.
  • The Runner hanging when baseUrl is set to null to load a local file. Fixes
    #​19105
• When using the default configuration of "nodeVersion": "system" with an
  installed system node >=17, Cypress will now work properly rather than throw
  an error incorrectly pointing to the user's plugin file. Fixes
  #​18914.
• Shadow DOM elements no longer error as hidden during actionability when the
  element is covered by its parent shadow root. Fixes
  #​18008.
• When using .type() events now correctly propagate out of the shadow DOM.
  Fixes #​17531.
• The this context is now properly preserved when overwriting cy.clock().
  Fixes #​19158.

Dependencies:

• Upgraded @cypress/request from 2.88.7 to 2.88.10. Addressed in
  #​19099.

v9.1.0

Compare Source

Released 11/22/2021

Features:

• A CYPRESS environment variable will be set to true in child processes where
  Cypress runs user code in Node.js. You can now detect that you're running in
  Cypress by looking for process.env.CYPRESS. Addresses
  #​18805.

Bugfixes:

• Specs with % in the filename will no longer fail to load and now behave as any
  other spec. Fixes
  #​18871.
• When using the Selector Playground, the HTML attribute's value will be wrapped
  in double-quotes. Fixes
  #​1884.
• The call count is now shown in the Command Log when using
  cy.stub().log(false). Fixes
  #​18907.
• The warning message for retrying connection to a browser has been improved to
  indicate when it is still waiting. Fixes
  #​18644.
• Cypress commands that rely on this context now have access to this when
  overridden. Fixes #​18899.

v9.0.0

Compare Source

Released 11/10/2021

Breaking Changes:

• The nodeVersion configuration option now defaults to system. The behavior
  of the system option has changed to always use the Node.js binary/version
  that launched Cypress. If Cypress was not launched via the terminal, Cypress
  will use the bundled Node.js version. This could change the behavior of code
  within your pluginsFile since it may be run in your system Node.js
  version. Addresses
  #​18684.
• Windows 32-bit is no longer supported in Cypress. Addresses
  #​17962.
• An error will now be thrown if an invalid value is passed to Cypress.config.
  Previously invalid values were ignored and could cause unexpected behavior.
  Addresses #​18589.
• cy.contains() no longer yields the <body> element when it matches the
  content of <script> or <style> tags. Addresses
  #​14861.
• Attempting to add an existing built-in Cypress command using
  Cypress.Commands.add() will now throw an error, indicating that
  Cypress.Commands.overwrite() should be used instead to overwrite the
  behavior of existing commands. Addresses
  #​18572.
• Custom command implementations are now typed based on the declared custom
  chainables. Addresses
  #​17496.
• The bundled Node.js version was upgraded from 14.17.0 to 16.5.0. This
  could change the behavior of code within the pluginsFile when using the
  bundled Node.js version of Cypress. Addressed in
  #​18317.

Deprecations:

• The nodeVersion configuration option has been deprecated and will be removed
  in a future release.

Features:

• When null is passed as the encoding to cy.readFile() or cy.fixture(),
  the file is treated as binary and read as a Buffer. Similarly, null passed
  as the encoding to cy.writeFile() allows direct writing of buffers. If the
  encoding is unspecified, the default remains utf8, matching the current
  behavior. Addresses
  #​18534.

Bugfixes:

• Sticky elements within a fixed container will now be able to be properly
  scrolled to during action commands. Fixes
  #​4233.
• document.referrer will now correctly reflect the correct value from the
  application under test after cy.visit(). Fixes
  #​4295.

Dependencies:

• Upgraded Chrome browser version used during cypress run and when selecting
  Electron browser in cypress open from 91 to 94. Addressed in
  #​15292.
• Upgraded bundled Node.js version from 14.17.0 to 16.5.0. Addressed in
  #​15292.
• Upgraded electron from 14.1.0 to 15.2.0. Addressed in
  #​15292.

v8.7.0

Compare Source

Released 10/25/2021

Features:

• There are changes to how "slow" tests are determined and displayed in Cypress.
  Addresses #​18496.
  • Added a slowTestThreshold
    configuration option to customize when tests are considered "slow" during
    cypress run. A test that runs slower than the given threshold will display
    in orange text in the default 'spec' reporter. This configuration can be set
    in your Cypress config file or via specific
    test configuration.
  • The default slow test threshold was changed from 75ms (Mocha's default) to
    10000ms for e2e tests and 250ms for component tests. To restore the old
    behavior, you can add "slowTestThreshold": 75 to your Cypress config file.
  • All tests will show the time the test ran in milliseconds during
    cypress run with the default 'spec' reporter.
• Users can pass an overwrite: true option to Cypress.Screenshot.defaults to
  change default behavior to overwrite existing screenshots without having to
  set overwrite for each cy.screenshot() command. Addresses
  #​7955.

Bugfixes:

• Fixed a regression introduced in 8.6.0 where videos recorded in
  Electron to the Dashboard were not playable in the Firefox or Safari browser
  and were not compatible with QuickTime player in MacOS.
• Fixed a regression introduced in 8.6.0 so that the warning about the
  projectRoot directory not being writeable will now display correctly. Fixes
  #​18485.
• Improved the error message when running Cypress without non-root permissions.
  Fixes #​18445.
• An error now throws when invalid options are passed to the selectorPriority
  configuration option of Cypress.SelectorPlayground.defaults. Valid values
  are data-*, id, class, tag, attribute, or nth-child. Fixes
  #​7745.

Dependency Updates:

• Pinned resolution of ua-parser-js to 0.7.24 to avoid dependency resolution
