Disable video recording on cypress run
See original GitHub issueCurrent behavior:
Video recorded on every cypress run.
Desired behavior:
CLI and/or config option to disable video recording on cypress run.
How to reproduce:
Run cypress run. See “Started video recording” message and generated video file in cypress/videos.
Additional Info (images, stack traces, etc)
I’m not using the videos while developing and I’d rather save the time/processing and lower my chances of running into associated bugs by disabling this functionality altogether when I need to run all tests.
