Cypress runner should start up / reload as a background application (on Mac OS)

PeterJayCruz opened this issue · comments

What would you like?

When the Cypress runner first loads up or is reloaded (i.e. updating the cypress config file), it becomes the focused application [on Mac OS].

It would be nice if this happened in the background (as it once did prior to v10). currently it is taking over as the focused application and opening in a full screen. so it takes over the whole screen and disrupts workflow.

Why is this needed?

it is very disruptive to my workflow when writing code and the cypress runner becomes the active/focused window while i'm in the middle of typing something in my IDE or terminal for example.

Seems to be a relatively recent change in behavior with an upgrade to Cypress v10.

Just want to say I have been loving the updates to the Cypress runner! This would be such an impactful quality of life kind of improvement! :)
