Passing a HTML element/reference with Cypress

[muniz95]

Hello everyone.

I'm setting a component test class for an Angular component that accepts a string/TemplateRef as @input:
@Input('cardHeader') cardHeader: string | TemplateRef<any> = '';

In my test case I can evaluate the test passing a string without any problem:
cy.mount(CardComponent, { componentProperties: { cardHeader: 'Test' } })

I saw that TestBed has a method to create an instance for a given component; is there anything similar in Cypress? And if no, how can I pass an element to a component?
