Cypress v14.0.0 is not compatible with cypress-axe

[wlsf82]

Current behavior

After upgrading a project that used cypress version 13.17.0 to cypress version 14.0.0, it fails to install other dependencies.

These other dependencies are axe-core version 4.10.2, and cypress-axe version 1.5.0.

Below is the error returned when running npm install.

Desired behavior

I wanted to be able to continue using cypress-axe with Cypress's latest version.

Should this be an issue to https://github.com/component-driven/cypress-axe?

[wlsf82]

Steps to reproduce are:

1. Create a project with the latest Cypress version (14.0.0)
2. Try to install axe-core and cypress-axe (e.g., npm i axe-core cypress-axe -D)

It fails with the following output:

npm i axe-core cypress-axe -D

We've opened a PR to cypress-axe here: component-driven/cypress-axe#180

[wlsf82]

I'm closing this issue since component-driven/cypress-axe#180 has been merged and a new version has been released.

By the way, it's working fine.
