cypress: Application not working with Chrome-64. Failing to get URL "/__/#/tests/"

  • Operating System: Window 7
  • Cypress Version: Cypress package version: 2.1.0 Cypress binary version: 2.1.0
  • Browser Version: Chrome 64

Is this a Feature or Bug? Bug

Current behavior:

I am trying to test website with Chrome 64 browser. As soon as i run the test chrome browser opens up and it shows that it is requesting the page. But soon after it opens a page that says…

404. That’s an error.

The requested URL /__/ was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

Desired behavior:

Ideally it should open the login page.

How to reproduce:

It is very simple and it breaking at the start of the test.

Test code:

cy.visit('https://www.google.co.in')

I can not upload image as i am behind corporate proxy. My problem is as soon as test starts running in Chrome 64 it opens a page having __ e.g. " https://app.corp.com/__/#/tests/integration\example_spec.js" and it crashes saying 404 not found.

But when I run the same test in Electron 59 it works.

With cypress 2.1.0 & chromium 64+, url visit is not redirecting properly. It adds __ in the url and the page simply waits.

@khuezy Did you install SwitchyOmega specifically within the Cypress browser? Launching within the Cypress browser profile should not have brought over 3rd party extensions installed in your regular browser - exactly for this reason - to ensure they do not interfere with your testing environment. https://on.cypress.io/launching-browsers#Cypress-Profile
