dest.end error crash during run exit on GitLab CI / Windows

Cypress >=v3.0.0 on GitLabCI

Current behavior:

Any version >= v3.0.0 of the Cypress is failing to run on the GitLab’s CI. The following error is being thrown exactly before cypress is exiting:

Desired behavior:

We expect the cypress to return the (All Done) message as Cypress v2.1.0 does with no error.

Steps to reproduce:

I have an issue with running cypress on the GitLab’s CI provider. I want to confirm whether this is a configuration issue, an incompatibility issue or a cypress bug.

I have installed cypress using the yarn command yarn add cypress. This will install me the latest version of cypress, namely v3.0.2.

[path-to-root-of-solution]/cypress.json

{
  "projectId": "……",
  "baseUrl": "…. "
}

[path-to-root-of-solution]/cypress/integration/HomePage/Home_Page_Quick_Lookup.js

describe('Home Page Test - Find Button', function () {

  before(function() {
    // navigate to home page (baseUrl)
    cy.visit('')
    
  })

  it('Check the button is on the page', function () {
    cy.get('[data-test=button-test-base]').should('exist')
  })
})

[path-to-root-of-solution]/gitlab-ci.yml

# … set path… 

stages:
  - test

run_test_suite:
  stage: test
  script:
    - call yarn add cypress
    - npx cypress run 

# .. end of file …

When I start the cypress using the command npx cypress run

Comments

I have searched to see if there are other who experienced this issue, but it seems that no one have. (or at least they didn’t bother in reporting the issue and/or sharing their solution).
The https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/1841 is the only issue that is a bit relevant to this problem in the sense that the pipeline fails when cypress is about to exit.

We have tried to use other versions of cypress: ► v3.0.2, v3.0.1, v3.0.0 – the above error is being generated
► v2.1.0 – no error is being generated
