  1) JBrowse embedded view

     TypeError: The following error originated from your application code, not from Cypress.

  > Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'showTrack')

When Cypress detects uncaught errors originating from your application it will automatically fail the current test.

This behavior is configurable, and you can choose to turn this off by listening to the `uncaught:exception` event.

link to log (temporary, is removed after 90 days or something) https://github.com/GMOD/jbrowse-components/actions/runs/8712609712/job/23899268332

the code used is

const state = createViewState({
      assembly,
      tracks,
      location: 'ctgA:1-100',
    })
    state.session.view.showTrack('volvox_cram')

I am surprised that this seems to show state.session.view being apparently undefined. if this is possible, then we may want to review our docs about how we recommend to use functions like showTrack

I ran the test:e2e locally and it worked. it may be a hard-to-reproduce error

might close this on for now. it is just too weird. if it does happen again, re-open
