Cypress has announced support for automating Firefox using the new WebDriver BiDi protocol in its latest release, Cypress 14.1.0, marking a significant shift from the previously used Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) due to its deprecation in Firefox 129 and above. WebDriver BiDi is a cross-browser automation protocol that offers fast, efficient interactions with low-level control over browser automation, reflecting Cypress's dedication to adopting cutting-edge testing protocols. This update, which aligns with Firefox's future direction, is the result of collaboration between Cypress and the Firefox team, aiming to provide comprehensive automation capabilities. Although WebDriver BiDi is now the default, users can still opt to use CDP by setting a specific environment variable, though support for CDP in Firefox is planned to be removed in Cypress 15. Looking ahead, Cypress is committed to further enhancing and updating its automation technology by working closely with browser vendors and the testing community, paving the way for expanded capabilities across more browsers.
