Cypress version

[leads]

What problem does this feature solve?

Hi. The Cypress version is still on 3.8.3. Can this be upgraded? Thanks!

What does the proposed API look like?

"cypress": "^4.11.0", (I think is the latest version)

It is also to notice that Cypress 3.8.3 has lodash as a dependency locked to the version 4.17.15, which has a known vulnerability => https://github.com/lodash/lodash/issues/4744.

Upgrading to Cypress 4 would fix that too.

+1 For this request. We need cypress ^4.11.0 to have the support of the experimentalShadowDomSupport flag : https://docs.cypress.io/guides/references/experiments.html#Shadow-DOM
I had to use the resolutions field of the package.json with yarn for now but it is definitely not an ideal solution.

Just looked at current pull-request, it is already a work in progress => #5139

It's now in a catch 22 of a new major release of Cypress is coming out soon, because it took so long to approve the PR to upgrade! It would be better if Cypress was a peer dependency, so that we can choose the version we want, and those who need to maintain BC can still do so.

Oh yes...Good idea....

The current version is 5.3.0 and it's already merged in dev branch:

vue-cli/packages/@vue/cli-plugin-e2e-cypress/package.json

Line 27 in 3f7fb4f

"cypress": "^5.2.0",

Please, can we release it? At least to the @next or @beta or whatever?

I can't use cypress 3 in WSL 1 and WSL 2, while 5.3.0 works for me.

And I can't install this plugin from github, because I use npm, which doesn't support installing from monorepo. Looks like the only way for me is to use npm-force-resolutions.

Or, I can switch from npm to yarn, which supports workspaces

This is not a solution:

Because yarn v1 doesn't support workspaces. And Vue doesn't work with yarn v2 which supports workspaces.

I tried to use npm-force-resolutions to force cypress newest version is 5.5.0, but it does not work, still stuck in ^3.8.3.
I need cypress to be version 5.x.x to use cy.route2 feature

[Maxim-Mazurok]

It definitely worked for me.
Make sure that you're using npm and not yarn. Make sure that you've added "preinstall": "npx npm-force-resolutions" script. Make sure that you have package-lock.json file and that you're running npm install and not npm ci. Otherwise, share your repro so that I can help you.

[trungdang194]

I followed the guidance from npm-force-resolutions, added in package.json "resolutions": { "cypress": "5.5.0" }, "script": { "preinstall": "npx npm-force-resolutions"}, tried the second times but unfortunately, it's not worked.
You can reproduce with packages installed: "cypress": "5.5.0", "npm-force-resolutions": "0.0.3", "@vue/cli-plugin-e2e-cypress": "4.5.8"

[Maxim-Mazurok]

What error are you getting?

[trungdang194]

Due to cli-plugin-e2e-cypress still use cypress v3.8, I cannot start e2e testing , cy.route2 require cypress v5.x

Try to remove your node_modules and run npm install again
