Ability to add tag to run to display in 'Runs' list in Dashboard UI

[ArieLevs]

Current behavior:

Dashboard UI does not show environment

Desired behavior:

Hi,
Is there an option to add environment to the dashboard UI?
So for example if we run sanity tests (or any e2e) for the same project on different environments we have no way to know where did the test ran.

for example screen shot above, test num 100 can run on production, text 101 can run on qa etc...
It would be great to see the env straight on dashboard without entering the test and figuring out where it ran.

Versions

cypress: v3.1.0
os: CentOS 7.3.1611
browser: Electron 59.0.3071.115

Hey @ArieLevs check out our new Grouping feature. We've found it helpful in our own tests to specify env the tests ran within, so --group staging and --group dev, etc. This will have all the tests displayed in the same run with labels associating each group.

Let me know if this helps with what you're looking for.

Hi @jennifer-shehane, thanks for the update,
I've ran cypress as cypress run --group arieTest --record --key **** (hard coded --group arieTest so all of our CI tests will use this parameter).

I cat see string arieTest only inside a specific test run view (under Specs) just as shown in the image below Grouping-to-label-parallelization

this way it still forces me to enter the specific test and scroll down to specs, is there any change to bring the environment up front similar to message, run time, etc?

We haven't had this feature request before, so there hasn't been any previous discussion on this.

The list of runs would need to display any/all groups within each run.

Hi @jennifer-shehane, this feature will be valuable for us as we normally run cypress tests in multiple environments (development CI, alpha, and production) and need to easily distinguish this from the birds-eye view instead of the actual test run.

Even just simple tagging/labeling of tests runs, that can be passed in to the CLI and displayed in the Dashboard UI, would be great.
