# 7.5.0

ReleasedReleased on June 6, 2021

**Features:**

-   The Test Runner has a new 'Docs' menu with links and prompts specific to helping you get started writing tests, set up in CI, and running tests in the Dashboard. Addressed in [#16433](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/pull/16433).
    
-   `cy.request()` now accepts a generic in TypeScript for specifying the type of the request body. Addresses [#9109](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/9109).
    

**Bugfixes:**

-   Cypress will not longer crash with a `hasBinary` infinite recursive call. Fixes [#16476](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/16476).
    
-   The `--config-file` option now correctly handles absolute paths. Fixes [#6136](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/6136).
    
-   `cy.location(<key>)` will now retry if the remote location returns an empty string, which is possible during otherwise harmless redirects. Fixes [#16463](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/16463).
    
-   Cypress now passes a flag to Chrome browsers to prevent update notifications from displaying in some cases. Fixes [#16693](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/16693).
    
-   TypeScript will now properly error when attempting to use the chai `<value>.should()` syntax. Fixes [#16548](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/16548).
    

**Dependency Updates:**

-   Replaced deprecated `listr` with `listr2`. Addressed in [#16663](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/pull/16663).
