Support for multiple browsers in one run

See original GitHub issue

What would you like?

I would like to configure Cypress like this:

cypress run --browsers chrome,firefox

This would

  • run the test suite in both browsers.
  • It would not stop if one of those fail
  • it would report test results and videos/screenshots for both of them, prefixed with the browser / in a sub directory with the name of the browser

Why is this needed?

We run Cypress in a cypress docker container to run the tests by Ops on other systems and mount the test results on the hosts file system. I’ve spent considerable amount of time to do this properly to run Cypress twice and have all test reports properly available on the host.

It would be a lot easier, if cypress would support that out of the box. And I could assume that this is actually a valid use case to run a suite with different browsers

Hey @jwedel, our “Fire Watch” stage is an internal process we’re using to triage incoming issues from the community. We have a group of people representing each of the teams working on the open-source app, and they help to triage, reproduce, and route issues to the team best suited to address them. This issue was routed to my team and came up during a backlog grooming meeting today.

Since we have a pretty active community here on GitHub, sometimes we do miss tags in comments, so I apologize for the delay in getting back to you. The primary focus for a while now (especially this last month) has been in releasing 10.0 and fixing any high-priority issues reported against it. For this specific issue you’ve logged, it seems appropriate for a product manager to review the proposal. I’ve flagged it for product review to get it on their radar. You can expect some discussion (likely from @pstakoun soon). For full transparency considering our current roadmap, I thought I’d also call out that this will be a low-priority enhancement request at this time. Product review discussions, or even more interest from the community, however, are things that may impact prioritization, so consider priority to be a pretty fluid thing.

You can configure where results are written, or have a simple script move them between runs
