0.20.1

Released Released on September 16, 2017

Features:

  • cypress run now supports a --headed option so the Electron browser will display instead of running headlessly. This matches what you can already do in the GUI. Fixes #657.

Bugfixes:

  • Using Cypress on nested projects now correctly works. Fixes #635.

  • Using cy.type on Angular 2 apps now works. We're now firing the key property when typing. We've properly mapped all the special keys too.

  • onBeforeLoad now gets invoked when overriding cy.visit. Fixes #656 and #640.

  • Using multiple cy.visit back to back which only change the hash now properly wait for the hashchange event to occur before moving on. Fixes #652.

  • CLI now displays the correct overridden CYPRESS_BINARY_VERSION on first open. Fixes #659.

  • Fixed the incorrectly spelled chainer descendents. It is now correctly spelled as descendants. Fixes #642.

  • The visibility algorithm has been considerably improved. Should fix most if not all visibility problems. We accounted for CSS transforms, translations, and added a new branch of logic for position: fixed elements which should be much more accurate. Fixes #631.

  • The CLI now treats -h and --help and help as valid commands. Fixes #645.

Misc:

  • You can now pass an object literal as config when using Cypress as a node module. Fixes #639.

  • Passing --reporter can now reference an absolute path instead of just relative. Fixes #658.

  • The algorithm that ensures an element is not covered now calculates this at the center coordinates instead of the top left. This should yield more accurate results, be closer to the default expectations of users, and bypass fractional pixel problems we were having. Fixes #655.

  • Improved crash reporting when the binary throws an uncaught error.
