Description

I'm working in a Cypress test suite and I wanted to use the Page interaction to check the URL. I tried the Page interaction but it doesn't seem to have any way to access the URL.

Cypress provides an API for interaction with the URL via cy.url. Do we want to have our own mechanism for doing this or should we rely on Cypress' API?

Start by reviewing the Page interactor API and Cypress's cy.url documentation linked in the issue. Decide whether URL access belongs in the Page interaction or should use Cypress directly; done means the project has an agreed mechanism for reading the current URL.
