**Cypress 13** has **[session][1] handling**. So you don't need these workarounds from above anymore.
an example:
cy.session( [user, password], () => { cy.visit('/auth/login');
type('#user_name', user); type('#user_password', password);
cy.get('#user_login_submit').click(); cy.url().should('contain', '/main'); }, { cacheAcrossSpecs: true, }, );
