๐Ÿ”ง Bug Fixes & Patches (6)

  • JSON fixtures with unicode escape sequences are now parsed correctly. Fixes #964.
  • The default `browserify` plugin no longer fires `watched:file:changed` twice leading to an uncaught exception that was popping up in the console. Also fixed a minor state bug in the `browserify` package. Fixes #968.
  • Cypress no longer reports `Electron` as the browser that ran in the Dashboard Service when a different browser was run. Fixes #854.
  • Invalid cookie values no longer crash Cypress. Fixes #962.
  • We are now bundling our own `TypeScript` definitions with the `cypress` npm module. You no longer have to install `@types/cypress` anymore. We'll continue to keep these updated with API changes. Fixes #856.
  • Uncaught exceptions originating from **your** application code and/or test code are now **distinctly** and **clearly** indicated in the error message. We included a link to our docs to educate you on how you can optionally disable Cypress from catching these. Fixes #825.
