Description

Although it has failed three times in a row, as you can see via the below link, locally, I was able to make it pass and fail intermittently.

Research direction

Start with the Cypress Cloud replay linked in the issue and locate the test named “sets, edits and clears user status” in the project’s Cypress tests. Reproduce it across repeated runs, then inspect the test and its related setup to identify the intermittent failure. Done means the test no longer fails intermittently in repeated runs.
