Renderer CoreText warnings displaying when running cypress in Electron

See original GitHub issue

Current behavior:

During my test run my log started being filled with:

2020-05-06 10:20:09.935 Cypress Helper (Renderer)[13275:1197167] CoreText note: Client requested name ".AppleSymbolsFB", it will get Times-Roman rather than the intended font. All system UI font access should be through proper APIs such as CTFontCreateUIFontForLanguage() or +[NSFont systemFontOfSize:].
2020-05-06 10:20:09.935 Cypress Helper (Renderer)[13275:1197167] CoreText note: Set a breakpoint on CTFontLogSystemFontNameRequest to debug.

Eventually, Cypress crashed between tests, between the Screenshot and Video packaging steps:

(Screenshots)

  -  /Users/morgan/Documents/WineSpectator/git/ws/cypress/screenshots/ws_home_page.sp     (1280x720)
     ec.js/Testing shared resources like header, footer, etc -- Homepage Ads appear -               
     - Banner Ads Appear (failed).png                                                               

The Test Runner unexpectedly exited via a exit event with signal SIGSEGV

Please search Cypress documentation for possible solutions:

Any status update regarding this topic? it’s making the CLI output just useless with all the noise coming from this message

Until this is fixed, I’m piping my CI output through grep to strip the spam:

npm test 2>&1| grep -v 'CoreText note:'
