 Use this option if you want to disable the cache feature. At the moment Vitest stores cache for test results to run the longer and failed tests first.
 
+The cache directory is controlled by the Vite's [`cacheDir`](https://vitejs.dev/config/shared-options.html#cachedir) option:
+
+```ts
+import { defineConfig } from 'vitest/config'
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  cacheDir: 'custom-folder/.vitest'
+})
+```
+
+You can limit the directory only for Vitest by using `process.env.VITEST`:
+
+```ts
+import { defineConfig } from 'vitest/config'
+
+export default defineConfig({
+  cacheDir: process.env.VITEST ? 'custom-folder/.vitest' : undefined
+})
+```
