Is it possible to pass an argument to a test?

Along the lines of this article - https://blog.bitsrc.io/how-to-pass-command-line-arguments-in-node-js-46af7960b45f
I would like to run a test in Jenkins and add parameterized values to the test run, but do not know how to get those values into the cy.js test.

Hi,

you can pass variables in following way

when run cypress

npx cypress run --env yourVariable=value

and use it in test

const var = Cypress.env('yourVariable');

for more details read following article https://docs.cypress.io/guides/guides/environment-variables#Setting
