See what changed, whether it affects you, and how teams ship with confidence. [Meet cypress tap: give your AI agent the context the Cypress app shows you Cypress AIcypress tap is a new set of CLI command to pull Cypress app context into your terminal. It lets AI agent drive a Cypress open session from the terminal, so it can author new tests, extend existing ones, and read failures the way the Cypress app shows them.Read more](/blog/cypress-tap-cli) [All](/blog)[Releases](/blog/category/Releases) [Community](/blog/category/Community) [Education](/blog/category/Education) [Customer Stories]() [Company](/blog/category/Company) [Automating Tests with Natural Language: Highlights from Frontend Nation 2025 cy.prompt() is now available to everyone. For full details on how cy.prompt() works and how to enable it, check out our docs. At Frontend Nation 2025, Cypress founder Brian Mann took the stage to explore the future of end-to-end testing using natural language. His talk, “Lessons from the AI Battlefield,” cut through the hype and showed what it actually takes to automate browsers with plain English and how Cypress is doing it differently. Update: The recording of Brian Mann's Frontend Nation ta Read more](/blog/automating-tests-with-natural-language-highlights-from-frontend-nation-2025) [Cypress Ambassador Spotlight: Chijioke John Njoku What motivates you to be a Cypress Ambassador? I am driven to become a Cypress Ambassador because of my strong passion for test automation and the transformative impact Cypress has on software quality.

Test generation in UI Coverage is the first of a set of AI-powered test generation tools that Cypress will release this year, and it works in just three steps: 1. Select an interactive element in your UI Coverage report, from any state of your application 2. Click “Gene Read more](/blog/add-your-missing-tests-faster-with-test-generation-in-ui-coverage) [Making the Most of UI Coverage UI Coverage quantifies how well your Cypress tests exercise your application by mapping interactive elements to those actually tested. The resulting insights expose gaps in critical user flows and can power quality gates that can be enforced in CI through our Results API. As a Technical Account Manager with extensive hands-on experience with configuring UI Coverage for users and in close collaboration with the product team, I’ve gathered some best practices for configuring UI Coverage to yield s Read more](/blog/making-the-most-of-ui-coverage) [Keeping up: Test coverage that works with AI-accelerated development A 2024 GitHub survey found that nearly all enterprise developers (97%) are using Generative AI coding tools. The majority of companies surveyed actively encourage the use of AI. At the same time, GitClear reports declining code quality metrics, and more frequent revisions of existing code, when code is written with the help of AI assistants. All of this puts more pressure on the test automation pipeline as the gatekeeper for quality, and the early warning system for when code isn’t ready to rel Read more](/blog/keeping-up-test-coverage-that-works-with-ai-accelerated-development) [Cypress Ambassador Spotlight: Mohammed Nihal What motivates you to be a Cypress Ambassador?

As this regulatory milestone approaches, companies need efficient ways to identify and address accessibility issues in their applications. This is top of mind for many Cypress Accessibility customers, and we are often asked just where test automation fits in, and can this sort of system make you compliant? The answer is that no test automation setup will Read more](/blog/the-european-accessibility-act-and-cypress-accessibility) [Press tab in your tests: Introducing cy.press() Tab key testing is here with cy.press()! This long-requested feature gives you the ability to trigger real native keyboard events in your tests, starting with support for the Tab key. This is a big step toward improving accessibility testing and ensuring smooth keyboard navigation experiences in your application. Why we built cy.press() Historically, Cypress users have relied on cy.type() to simulate keyboard input. While cy.type() is great for typing characters in typeable elements, it does Read more](/blog/press-tab-in-your-tests-introducing-cy-press) [Newer posts](/blog/page/7) [Older posts](/blog/page/9)
