Summary

Cypress has introduced a new feature for its Dashboard users, allowing them to embed README badges in their project's README files to showcase the project's test status and test count. These badges provide immediate visibility to other developers regarding the number of passed, failed, and skipped Cypress tests, enhancing the insight and perceived quality of the project. The badges can be customized in terms of styling and information displayed, with options ranging from simple pass/fail status to detailed test counts. This feature is currently available only for public projects, and once configured, the badge can be embedded into the README file using markdown, thereby increasing transparency and potentially appealing to collaborators or users.
