This blog covers how we can execute Cypress Test cases in WebKit(Safari)

In version 10.8.0, cypress team have introduced the support of WebKit(Safari) browser

Cypress has experimental support for WebKit, Safari’s browser engine. Testing your app with WebKit is representative of how your app would run in Safari.

To run test cases in WebKit(Safari) we have to install a new version of cypress 10.8.0 Or have to upgrade the existing version (if the old version is already installed)

Installation Steps

Step 1:

Install / Upgrade Cypress version 10.8.0

Commands npm install --save-dev cypress@10.8.0

Step 2:

Add experimentalWebKitSupport: true to your configuration to enable the experiment.

Please see the below screenshot, In cypress. config.js we need to add the above command

Step 3:

Install the playwright-webkit NPM package in your repo to acquire WebKit itself: npm install --save-dev playwright-webkit.
