🔧 Bug Fixes & Patches (5)

  • There is now a Search Bar in the Desktop GUI that enables you to filter the list of specs. Helpful for projects with a ton of spec files. Fixes #1098.
  • The seeded `example_spec.js` file no longer fails in Windows on the `cy.exec()` test. It now conditionally runs a command appropriate for Windows. Fixes #1097.
