I think I am seeing this problem too.

Chrome loops when I attempt to run my test suite against an HTTP site. The tests run headlessly for Chrome, but not in Chrome with the UI. I can run the tests in Electron OK.

This is reproducible with a simple template spec:
describe('template spec', () => {
it('passes', () => {
cy.visit('http://example.com/')
});
});

I posted about it in the Discord here, but no update yet:

I have a project that uses an HTTP environment for test runs, so I hope that this is something that can be fixed in Cypress.

Cypress 12.7.0
Chrome 119
NodeJS 20.9.0

Hello,
same issue for me

[mpoetzsch]

seems to be the same problem like here: #25891

Summarization of the ticket:

the issue arises only with newer versions of Chrome (it worked for me with an older version). The problem likely started with the introduction of https://blog.chromium.org/2023/08/towards-https-by-default.html.

Workaround:
change the URL from https to http in the address bar of chrome and reload the web specs runner. After that, the tests run smoothly.

or a more permanent workaround is here:

(the solution with the most upvotes)
