Canceling Runs
Cancelling cypress tests runs via dashboard
Runs that are currently in progress can be cancelled using the dashboard controls.
Cancelling a run can be useful for:
- preventing run from timing out
- optimizing usage of your CI provider resources
- reducing the number of recorded tests
Please note: Cancelling a run cannot be undone
In-progress runs can be cancelled by clicking the "Cancel Run" button in the Runs Feed view.
