How can we setup Cypress for IE and Edge?

Question

I need to use Cypress for testing angular and react application on Internet Explorer and Microsoft edge. I have gone through some links which mentions that Cypress supports only Chrome, Chromium and Electron. Is it true ? if not the how can i use it for testing IE and Edge.?

Answer 1

As per the documentation Canary, Chrome, Chromium and Electron are supported.

Cypress supported browsers

Which means you cannot make a test with IE or present Edge browser.

But you can try to make a test with new MS Edge Chromium. As it is using Chromium browser engine, It should work with Cypress.

The pre launched version is available to download. You can download it from link below.
