Summary

Cypress 11 has been launched, bringing significant updates, including the general availability (GA) of Cypress Component Testing (CT), which allows developers to test individual components in isolation using popular front-end frameworks like React, Next.js, Vue, and Angular. Previously in beta, CT's transition to GA signifies its readiness for widespread use, with APIs stabilized and numerous bugs fixed. While support for Svelte and Nuxt remains in alpha, they are expected to reach GA soon. The new release also introduces faster startup performance, with the app's launch time improved by up to 85% in some cases. Users are encouraged to consult the changelog and migration guide for details on breaking changes, such as those affecting the mount API and development servers. The release aims to enhance the developer experience by maintaining familiarity while innovating performance and component testing capabilities.
