Cannot execute just a spec (or group of them) inside the specs folder

Hi, first of all, thank you for your contribution, this can be very useful for our daily testing activities.

I see a problem, and it is that I cannot find a way to execute just a spec (or group of them) inside the specs folder.

For example, in regular Cypress I’ll do:

"cypress run --spec 'cypress/integration/a.spec.js,cypress/integration/b.spec.js'  --reporter cypr...

But if in cypress-parallel I try to do this, it does not work:

"parTest": "cypress-parallel -s cy:run -t 2 -a '\"--spec 'cypress/integration/a.spec.js,cypress/integration/b.spec.js'\"' ",
"cy:run": "cypress run ",

I also tried other alternatives but I can not find a way to do this. What I am doing wrong? Is it possible to achieve this with current version of cypress-parallel?

Thank you very much in advance!

This should be possible using the glob pattern match support: npx cypress-parallel -s cypress run -t 2 -d "cypress/integration/**/{a,b}.spec.js

Full example (-v, verbose):

npx cypress-parallel -s cypress run -t 2 -d  "cypress/integration/**/{a,b}.spec.js" -v
Using pattern cypress/integration/**/{a,b}.spec.js to find test suites
2 test suite(s) found.
Paths to found suites
[
  "cypress/integration/a.spec.js",
  "cypress/integration/b.spec.js"
]
[..]
Running:  a.spec.js
[..]
Running:  b.spec.js

Would result in 2 threads running the two matched specs in parallel.
