Errors
cy.focus() can only be called on a valid focusable element.
Ensure the element you are trying to call cy.focus() on is a focusable element. Most commonly, you'll want to ensure that the element is not disabled although there are other factors.
cy.focus() timed out because your browser did not receive any focus events. This is a known bug in Chrome when it is not the currently focused window.
If you see this error, you may want to ensure that the main browser window is currently focused. This means not being focused in debugger or any other window when the command is executed.
