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) [Cypress Ambassador Spotlight: Abhishek Singh 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) [Cypress Ambassador Spotlight: Frits van der Sloot What motivates you to be a Cypress Ambassador? As an Ambassador, I have the opportunity to give back to the community that has given me so much over the past five years. Before Cypress, test automation would often be a chore, to put it lightly.

Compared to typical in-test accessibility scans, this "out-of-test" approach comes with a few key advantages – no special setup, no performance impact on test execution, and improved consistency across runs. All states and variations can be checked, every time, without a single line of test code added. The one thing these accessibility checks won't do is fail a test Read more](/blog/new-in-cypress-accessibility-results-api-updates) [Introducing Cypress.stop(): A simple way to halt test runs We’re thrilled to announce Cypress.stop(), a powerful command that allows you to stop test execution programmatically. Why we built Cypress.stop() Testing should be efficient, predictable, and provide feedback as fast as possible. Whether you want to stop tests immediately upon failure or skip execution based on some other condition, Cypress.stop() provides faster feedback and the flexibility you need. How Cypress.stop() works With a single command, Cypress.stop() halts execution within th Read more](/blog/introducing-cypress-stop-a-simple-way-to-halt-test-runs) [Cypress Ambassador Spotlight: Anna Patterson What motivates you to be a Cypress Ambassador?

This comes up because everybody's been through a certain kind of pain in their accessibility remediation work, where fixing one issue can expose, or even directly cause, another problem. At same time, incoming UI changes can silently introduce issues that could have been caught and pr Read more](/blog/just-launched-accessibility-branch-review-spot-new-issues-in-seconds) [Newer posts](/blog/page/8) [Older posts](/blog/page/10)
