Bumps cypress-fail-fast from 7.1.1 to 8.0.0.

Release notes

Sourced from cypress-fail-fast's releases.

New configuration model

Preface

Cypress Fail Fast 8.0.0 introduces a new configuration model based on Cypress.expose(), consolidates the public API, replaces the old parallel strategy with a hook-based mechanism, and drops support for legacy Cypress versions in order to provide a simpler, more stable, and more maintainable plugin.

Changelog

Breaking Changes

• Configuration no longer uses Cypress.env() or environment variables. All plugin options must be provided via Cypress.expose() in the Cypress configuration file.
• Environment-based keys have been renamed:
  • FAIL_FAST_STRATEGY → failFastStrategy
  • FAIL_FAST_ENABLED → failFastEnabled
  • FAIL_FAST_BAIL → failFastBail
• Renamed parallelCallbacks plugin option to hooks, and changed its structure. Now it is an object with two optional properties: onFailFastTriggered and shouldTriggerFailFast. The first one is a callback that runs when fail-fast mode is triggered, and receives an object with the strategy being applied and the test that triggered it (name and fullTitle). The second one is a callback that runs before each test execution and should return true to trigger fail-fast mode.
• Removed support for the parallel strategy. The plugin now uses hooks that work regardless of the strategy, so there is no need to specify a different strategy for managing parallel runs. It is now the responsibility of the user to implement the coordination mechanism for parallel runs if they want to use that feature.
• The FAIL_FAST_PLUGIN option has been removed. Use the combination of failFastEnabled and failFastIgnorePerTestConfig instead.
• Fail-fast behavior now uses Mocha this.skip(), which causes skipped tests to appear as pending in the results instead of skipped.
• The plugin now requires Cypress >= 15.10.0 and no longer supports older versions.

Added

• feat: Support configuration via Cypress.expose() and new failFast* options.
• feat: Add failFastIgnorePerTestConfig option to control whether per-test configuration is honored.
• refactor: Migrate plugin and tests to TypeScript.
• test(e2e): Simplify and speed up E2E tests.

Changed

• refactor: Use Mocha this.skip() internally instead of Cypress.stop() to implement fail-fast behavior.
• test(e2e): Migrate E2E test projects to pnpm for dependency management.
• chore(deps): Update devDependencies, removing unused packages and upgrading existing ones.

Removed

• feat: Remove parallel strategy. Hooks now work regardless of the strategy.
• test(e2e): Drop E2E tests for old Cypress versions.
• chore: Remove workarounds and access to private Cypress APIs no longer needed with the new minimum supported version.

Notes

Why configuration moved away from Cypress.env()

Starting with Cypress 15.10.0, Cypress.env() is deprecated and scheduled for removal in a future major version.

Why options were renamed and FAIL_FAST_PLUGIN was removed

Historically, the plugin used environment-style names such as FAIL_FAST_STRATEGY, FAIL_FAST_ENABLED, and FAIL_FAST_BAIL. With the transition to Cypress.expose(), it is more natural to use camelCase keys that fit into the rest of the Cypress configuration tree (failFastStrategy, failFastEnabled, failFastBail).

The FAIL_FAST_PLUGIN option was also problematic because it completely disabled the plugin logic, including per-test configuration, in a way that was not immediately obvious. In 8.0.0 it is replaced by a more explicit combination:
