Rules
Requirements
- `.last()` requires being chained off a command that yields DOM element(s).
Assertions
- `.last()` will automatically [retry](/guides/core-concepts/retry-ability) until the element(s) [exist in the DOM](/guides/core-concepts/introduction-to-cypress#Default-Assertions)
- `.last()` will automatically [retry](/guides/core-concepts/retry-ability) until all chained assertions have passed
Timeouts
- `.last()` can time out waiting for the element(s) to [exist in the DOM](/guides/core-concepts/introduction-to-cypress#Default-Assertions).
- `.last()` can time out waiting for assertions you've added to pass.
