Released 10/11/2021

Features:

  • cy.screenshot() now accepts overwrite: true as an option to overwrite
    existing screenshots with the same file name. Addresses
    #7955.
  • cy.select([]) can now be used to clear any selected options in a multi-value
    select. Addresses #4318.
  • Using cy.pause() when using cypress run --headed --no-exit will now pause
    a test. Addresses #4044.

Bugfixes:

  • Fixed a regression introduced in 8.2.0 where certain XMLHttpRequests
    would not display their response bodies in the DevTools Console when clicked.
    Fixes #17656.
  • Fixed a regression in 8.3.0 where capturing videos in Chrome
    versions earlier than 89 would result in choppy videos and skipped frames.
    Fixes #18021.
  • Cypress displays the correct error when certain custom error types are thrown
    within a test. Fixes
    #18259.
  • The Cypress App will no longer crash when passed a --spec: {} from the CLI
    and instead error when passed an invalid object argument. Fixes
    #3957.
  • Logging a plain object no longer results in the error "Cannot convert object
    to primitive value". Fixes #18143.

Misc:

  • Updated the cy.request() error message when conflicting failOnStatusCode
    and retryOnStatusCodeFailure options are passed to be clearer. Fixes
    #18271.

Dependency Updates:

  • Upgraded the Chromium browser version used during cypress run and when
    selecting Electron browser in cypress open from 91.0.4472.164 to
    93.0.4577.58.
  • Upgraded electron from 13.2.0 to 14.1.0. Addressed in
    #18318 and
    #18384.
