Hi there,

Im finding it difficult to find examples of how I can set up parallel tests in Buildkite that integrates with cypress dashboard.

I got the dashboard integrated and working but I cant find a good simple example how to get basic parallel tests running on Buildkite.

Any help available on this ? I mean in the Buildkite.yml I couldn't figure out how to enable this

I did try to add the "parallelism: 3" but this just created 3 agents and ran all of my tests in each agent so I didnt get any parallel tests running just multiple agents

ok I figured out if I just add:

parallelism: 3

to my e2e block on the Buildkite.yml file then it works.

Also I have to add: --ci-build-id $BUILDKITE_BUILD_ID

to my npm script (before I was using BUILDKITE_JOB_ID which are all unique so maybe thats why it didnt work right first time round)

Hopefully this is of some help to people using Buildkite.

Worked for me!

These docs were were also helpful. https://docs.cypress.io/guides/cloud/smart-orchestration/parallelization#CI-Build-ID-environment-variables-by-provider
