+## 9.6.0
+
+_Released 4/25/2022_
+
+**Features:**
+
+- Now you can easily test multi-domain workflows by using the experimental
+  [`cy.origin()`](/api/commands/origin) command. This feature allows you to test
+  across different origins or domains within a single test. This experiment was
+  designed to work side-by-side with the [`cy.session()`](/api/commands/session)
+  experimental feature. You can turn on use of this command by setting the
+  [`experimentalSessionAndOrigin`](guides/references/experiments) configuration
+  option to `true`. For more details, read
+  [our blog post](https://cypress.io/blog/2022/04/25/cypress-9-6-0-easily-test-multi-domain-workflows-with-cy-origin/).
+  Addressed [#17336](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/17336) and
+  [#944](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/944).
+  - Added a new configuration option called `experimentalSessionAndOrigin`. This
+    option enables support for [`cy.session()`](/api/commands/session) and
+    [`cy.origin()`](/api/commands/origin).
+  - The `experimentalSessionSupport` configuration option has been removed and
+    replaced by the `experimentalSessionAndOrigin` configuration option. Please
+    update your configuration to use the new `experimentalSessionAndOrigin`
+    option to continue to opt-in to this experimental feature.
+  - When `experimentalSessionAndOrigin` is enabled, cross-origin requests will
+    no longer immediately fail, but instead, time out based on the
+    [`pageLoadTimeout`](/guides/references/configuration#Timeouts)
+    configuration. This allows the request to be appropriately handled by the
+    [`cy.origin()`](/api/commands/origin) command.
+  - When `experimentalSessionAndOrigin` is enabled, Cypress will no longer wait
+    on page loads between hooks before moving on to the next test.
+
+**Bugfixes:**
+
+- Fixed an issue with Firefox 98+ where the Enter keystroke was not being sent
+  to an input element when using [`.type('{enter}')`](/api/commands/type). Fixed
+  [#21033](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/21033).
+- We now verify if an interruption while running tests was signaled by the user
+  or if it came from an error in a plugin before showing the error message.
+  Fixed [#21010](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/21010).
+- Improved the error message observed on Windows platforms when unzipping the
+  Cypress binary and the max file length is exceeded. Fixed in
+  [#21047](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/pull/21047).
+- Updated the `Cypress.Commands.add()` TypeScript types to better reflect the
+  attributes of the `.add()` utility and the JQuery element, a possible previous
+  subject type. [#20376](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/20376).
+
+**Dependency Updates:**
+
+- Upgraded `electron` dependency from `15.3.5` to `15.5.1` to consume fixes
+  related to
+  [improve performance](https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/33406) on
+  macOS Big Sur and later. Addressed
+  [#21068](https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/21068).
