All Console Commands are hanging in Cypress

I'm watching the video on Cypress.

https://laracasts.com/series/whatcha-working-on/episodes/39

At the 27:45 mark, Jeffrey adds this code:

beforeEach(() => { 
    cy.exec('php artisan migrate:fresh --env=acceptance')
})

When I run my tests it just hangs and I get this error, does anyone know why this might be?

cy.exec('php artisan migrate:fresh --env=acceptance') timed out after waiting 60000ms

I'm using Laravel 7 and Cypress 4.4.1 installed via yarn.

Got it working. Turns out Cypress takes a look at your .bash_profile. I removed commands one by one until I found the one it didn't like.
