Challenges with Setting Up Cypress in Gitlab CI
We have been facing difficulties setting up Cypress in the CI runners of gitlab.com using the default blueprint from vue-cli to scaffold the project. Despite trying various configurations in the gitlab.yml file and different docker images as recommended by Crypress, we have not been successful so far.
After exhausting our CI minutes due to numerous failed attempts, we are starting to doubt if it's even feasible to get Cypress running with the default setup from vue-cli.
We also reached out on the vue repo for assistance, but unfortunately, our issue got closed (reference: https://github.com/vuejs/vue/issues/10944). We provided detailed information in a customized issue report template, though it was challenging since it's not a conventional "JavaScript" problem. Our efforts to communicate the issue via Codepen did not yield any positive outcome either.
