How does Cypress Cloud balance specs across parallel machines?
- 1Alphabetically, giving each machine the same number of files
- 2By past spec durations, giving each machine similar total time
- 3Randomly, so that every run uses a different split
Show the answer
Correct answer: By past spec durations, giving each machine similar total time
Explanation
Duration-based balancing keeps the slowest machine short. Very long specs limit how well any balancing can work.
