While executing Cypress tests via the command-line interface, there are instances where the local server fails to load for specific tests

Occasionally, a few tests encounter failure in an unpredictable manner, and during these times, the local server does not successfully load, resulting in a blank screen instead of the expected website content. This issue materializes randomly as tests progress among a set of 50. It remains uncertain whether this issue originates within the application itself or if it is attributed to a glitch within Cypress.

While investigating, I inspected the cloud watch logs for the application, which revealed that resource utilization remained within normal limits, effectively ruling out space constraints at the application level as well as any potential HTTP/API call disruptions. The Cypress version utilized is 12.16.0, with Chrome 116 operating in headless mode, and the Node version is v16.20.0.

To address the issue, I experimented with changing the server address to 127.0.0.1:4200 instead of the usual http://localhost:4200/. However, this modification resulted in test failures due to unanticipated complications.
