Cypress Run Command opens a non-focusable white window

ItsWasteD commented 6 days ago

Current behavior

Hello, since last week our "cypress run" commands open a weird non-focusable blank window (see screenshot). I have no idea why this is happening i haven't updated cypress in one month. I even tried to change my browser option from "-b edge" to "-b chrome" but it still happened.

Also that white window doesn't have an Icon in the taskbar as if it wasn't an application or anything like that.

Desired behavior

The white window shouldn't appear.

Test code to reproduce

cypress run -s 'cypress/e2e/Basis/first/*,cypress/e2e/Basis/*,cypress/e2e/Basis/last/*' -b edge -C test.config.js

Cypress Version

13.13.1

Node version

v20.12.2

Operating System

Windows 11

Debug Logs

I tried to isolate the part where the white window opened. Mainly because there was private information in the Debug Log aswell.

Edge version from debug logs is 129.0.2792.79

Please share your browser version of

Chrome

MikeMcC399 commented 6 days ago

It looks like this started happening with the release of Chromium family version 128 browsers. It seems to only affect Windows.

This issue is reproducible on Windows 11 24H2 with

Chrome Version 129.0.6668.90 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Edge Version 129.0.2792.79 (Official build) (64-bit)
Chromium Version 128.0.6613.0 (Developer Build) (64-bit) / 1331469
Chromium Version 129.0.6668.0 (Developer Build) (64-bit) / 1343897

The additional blank window does not appear when using the older Chromium version

Chromium Version 127.0.6533.0 (Developer Build) (64-bit) / 1313161 nor on
Electron 27.3.10 / v118
Firefox 131.0

I was not able to reproduce the issue on Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS

@MikeMcC399 Added the chrome version. I'm using Chrome Version: 129.0.6668.101

Added the chrome version. I'm using Chrome Version: 129.0.6668.101

Thanks for confirming! I guess you are just picking up the automatic updates of Edge and Chrome.

I couldn't see anything obvious in https://developer.chrome.com/blog/new-in-chrome-128 to explain the change in behavior.
