16.2.1: Fixes for runs that hang or fail after passing
ReleasedReleased on October 28, 2026
Cypress 16.2.1 fixes runs that never finished: in Chrome, Chromium, and Edge, specs bundled above about 75 MB no longer hang at their first cy.visit() to another origin, and cypress run no longer stalls when a test retries after a hook timed out. A run where every test passed no longer exits with code 1, and Cypress Cloud no longer lists unchanged tests as Modified when a Test Replay run switches browsers. Node code in setupNodeEvents and cy.task() now verifies TLS certificates the same way Node does, so check any HTTPS calls to self-signed hosts when you upgrade.
