Cypress now forces the initial cy.visit() not to be cached by the browser. This was incorrectly being ached which meant when you changed the cy.visit() it would not actually go out and fetch the new contents. reviously you had to check `Disable Cache` in the `Network Tab` inside of Chrome to prevent this bug. Unfortunately this has a significant erformance drawback. If you use a cy.visit() before each test you will notice a degrade in performance ecause this request is no longer cached. This is

*Released 09/20/2015* **Features:** - The `Linux` version of Cypress now works correctly for GUI Desktop versions (tested on Ubuntu Desktop). Previously it would only worked during `cypress run` in server versions. The `tray` used in OSX does not work with the `Linux`, so in `Linux` we just use a standard window + menu. - Added Desktop Icon. **Bugfixes:** - Cypress now forces the initial [cy.visit()](https://on.cypress.io/visit) not to be cached by the browser. This was incorrectly being ached which meant when you changed the [cy.visit()](https://on.cypress.io/visit) it would not actually go out and fetch the new contents. reviously you had to check `Disable Cache` in the `Network Tab` inside of Chrome to prevent this bug. Unfortunately this has a significant erformance drawback. If you use a [cy.visit()](https://on.cypress.io/visit) before each test you will notice a degrade in performance ecause this request is no longer cached. This is a temporary problem until Cypress implements a more sophisticated caching strategy which ptimizes these concerns. There is a lot to improve in this arena but it will take more time before it's implemented. - [.should()](https://on.cypress.io/should) will no longer throw an error when it is used as a `parent command` and has a callback unction signature, and that callback function throws outside of an assertion. Instead now it logs correctly, handles the error, and displays his error for you. **Misc:** - Many additional tests added to the multi-os deployment process. - When Cypress opens other windows they are now auto-focused.
