TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined when run test by cypress run

See original GitHub issue

Current behavior:

I have testing site with shadow DOM.

it('test', () => {
  cy
    .get('div[class="oneAppNavContainer"]')
    .find('one-appnav')
    .find('span[title="          Config"]', {includeShadowDom: true})
    .contains('          Config');
});

It’s code work correctly when I use cypress open.

But not work when I use cypress run.
