Inconsistent snapshot directory for cypress run vs. cypress open

[cangoektas]

Hi!

I found out that snapshots are saved in different directories depending on if they are created using cypress run or cypress open.

Steps to reproduce

1. Delete the examples/snapshot directory
2. Run cypress run
3. Run crypress open and click on Run all specs

What happens is that the same call to matchImageSnapshot produces two different snapshot files:

I stumbled open this because I made a change and expected the tests to fail but since there was a new file created everything was still green. I would expect that the previous snapshot should have been used to match against the new screenshot.

Is there something we can do here?

I've noticed this behavior as well and it's not ideal. I think it's caused by cypress-io/cypress#2091 since we just mirror the screenshots directory in snapshots.

It looks like a fix for the issue is targeting Cypress v3.0.3 though so hopefully that is released soon.

Just noticed that 3.0.3 was released and this issue was fixed 🎉.
