Currents dashboard allows running Playwright and Cypress tests in parallel using multiple containers within your GitHub Actions workflow.

By using , you can create multiple containers that will run your Playwright and Cypress tests in parallel.

Each container will receive a unique set of tests to run so that your tests will run faster and you can receive faster feedback from your browser test suite.

Cypress

Currents orchestrates the tests between multiple containers, applying intelligent optimizations to reduce the overall runtime of your workflow, and records screenshots and videos for later troubleshooting.

Playwright

Currents uses the native to split the tests between multiple containers and collects the results from distributed runs.
