cypress json reporter options does not generate output file

[lmordell]

Current Behavior

Run cypress e2e tests with a json reporter and define an output file. The output file is not generated; or, if the file exists, the json output is not written to the file.

Expected Behavior

When setting --reporter json --reporterOptions output=results.json, the output file should be generated and contain the results from the test run in JSON format.

Steps to Reproduce

Run the e2e suite for a given app. Set the reporter to json and reportOptions to output=results.json

e.g. nx e2e my-app-e2e --reporter json --reporterOptions output=results.json

I just tried this with defining it also in the cypress.json file and the same behavior happens as the command line. Where it prints the JSON to the console, but doesn't write a file.

Looks to be a bug with cypress and mocha reporter integration currently
cypress-io/cypress#18014

Thanks for the investigation @barbados-clemens . Hope it gets resolved on cypress' end soon.
