Crossing origins is super common with sites that use third-party authentication, for example. Before, you would have to use programmatic authentication in Cypress tests, but this wasn’t indicative of how a real person would use the app. Now with cross-origin support, you no longer need to work around your login flow:
Due to how Cypress executes your tests in a browser, visiting another site was a huge technical hurdle due to cross-origin security limitations.
In Cypress 12 cy.session() included, which support out of experimental and into general availability status. Session support can tie closely with cross-origin in that you can save a user session (storage, cookies, etc.) after authentication and restore it in a subsequent test. This cuts down on overall test suite execution time as each test won’t need to go through the authentication flow.
Sample Code:
it(‘user should be able to login’, () => {
cy.visit(‘https://localhost:3000/‘);
// clicking sign in button redirects to 3rd party auth site
cy.get(‘#sign-in’).click();
cy.origin(‘auth.securewebsite.com‘, () => {
cy.get(‘input[type=”email”]’).type(‘test@test.com‘); cy.get(‘input[type=”password”]’).type(‘testpassword’, { log: false }); // clicking submit does the auth and redirects back to main site cy.get(‘input[type=”submit”]’).click();
});
// once done testing can continue
cy.contains(`Welcome Tester McTester!`); });

How do quality assurance and testing differ?
Organisations need help understanding both quality assurance and software testing because both aim to create bug-free, functional applications. Software testing involves techniques and procedures to find software bugs; quality assurance is a process to ensure that the project complies with the stakeholders’ expectations.
