Code Review

This pull request from Snyk aims to fix a security vulnerability by upgrading the @types/cypress package. While this change is effective, it's worth noting that @types/cypress is deprecated. Modern versions of Cypress, including the one used in this project (^13.17.0), bundle their own type definitions. Therefore, the best course of action would be to remove the @types/cypress dependency altogether. I have added a specific comment with this suggestion.

[gemini-code-assist]

The @types/cypress package is deprecated. Cypress has included its own type definitions since version 4.0.0. Since you are using Cypress ^13.17.0, this dependency is redundant and should be removed. This will also resolve the security vulnerability this PR aims to fix. Please remove this line and the trailing comma from the preceding line.
