# To set up this workflow to work with your own Cypress Cloud project | |
# refer to the README in the example directory examples/recording. | |
# | |
# --- | |
# | |
# Typically you would let this action | |
# determine a unique build id to tie multiple parallel | |
# test jobs together into a single logical Cypress Cloud run. | |
# But sometimes you need to execute Cypress using | |
# your own custom command and pass your --ci-build-id | |
# In that case it is important to make sure this build id | |
# is generated _again_ on workflow re-run. This example | |
# shows how to create a unique ID then pass it to | |
# multiple testing jobs running in parallel | |
# based on the recipe written in | |
# https://medium.com/attest-r-and-d/adding-a-unique-github-build-identifier-7aa2e83cadca | |
# The use of set-output is however deprecated by GitHub since the above blog | |
# was written in 2019 so this is replaced by GitHub Environment files, see | |
# https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-commands-for-github-actions#environment-files | |
