Whoops, we can't run your tests.

[zbigniewkalinowski]

Current behavior:

When i'm running any test in Chrome for the first time i see "Whoops, we can't run your tests."
When i select Electron and Chrome again everything is working.
I'm experiencing this problem when i'm using Cypress app, but also when i'm trying tu run test from command line.
Running tests in Chrome from Command line is impossible now in fact...

Desired behavior:

I need to run my tests from command line smoothly, because i need to run them from external dashbord.

How to reproduce:

1. First situation

• cypress open
• select Chrome on right panel
• run any script

2. Second situation

• cypress run --spec cypress/integration/myFile.js --browser chrome

Additional Info (images, stack traces, etc)

Result in both situations look like this:

• Operating System: Windows
• Cypress Version: 1.4.2
• Browser Version: Chrome

I am having the same problem. Tests ran the first time when I installed cypress. After that it never worked.
Whoops, we can't run your tests.

This browser was not launched through Cypress. Tests cannot run.
