Skip a Cypress Test in Commandline

Question

I have a cypress integration test that I do not want to run in my CI/CD pipeline. I know I can use .skip() function to skip the test but what I am looking for is a way to exclude the test by passing some command line argument itself(like we have in case of Xunit test cases). Is there any way to do that?

Answer 1

You can specify the tests you want to be run by using the cypress run --spec option. So you can move the tests you want to run into their own folder, 'cypress/integration/testsToRun/**/*' for example, and Cypress will run only the specified tests and skip the rest.
