How to reuse cypress.run instance?

[tommy0831]

cypress.run will start a new cypress instance to run a list of specs passed in. The problem is the specs are queued. If an instanced is queued with all the slow/long running tests, then the whole run will take a long time. What I want to do is start multiple cypress instances thru cypress.run and have them execute the test(s) by taking them from a queue as they finish the current run.

pseudo code

// fire off 3 instances
cypres.run({...}).then((rr) => {
// load test(s) from queue and keep running until no more test in queue
});
cypres.run({...}).then((rr) => {
// load test(s) from queue and keep running until no more test in queue
});
cypres.run({...}).then((rr) => {
// load test(s) from queue and keep running until no more test in queue
});

This way the long test(s) will not be stuck with one cypress instance. And, whoever finishes first will take on the next test from the queue.
