I actually have a run now that's been "running" for 19 hours waiting for results. Not sure how I can remove it?

[jennifer-shehane]

Yes, this unfortunately didn't make it in 3.0, will be aiming for 3.1 release of this now.

Deleting a run is also a feature. Opened an issue here for that: #1839

This is totally needed! My test failed in Circle CI, but is still running in Cypress - almost an hour now.

@brian-mann TODO for run cancellation on test runner

• Test runner should expect 422 RUN_CANCELLED and 422 INSTANCE_CANCELLED (or whatever the API ends up sending and write specific error message:

  This run was cancelled by ...... at ...... To see the results of the run visit ....url

• When user cancels run in CI or when kills process locally -via SIGKILL, SIGINT, SIGTERM (or something) - could we send a request from the Test Runner to the API to do a POST runs/id/cancel to cancel the run - (may not have cancelledBy in this situation - so may be null)?

its still not there in 3.1.4. my test are running in dashboard for more than 1.5 hours now

[jennifer-shehane]

@puneetiet Yes, this run cancellation not been released yet. If the run runs longer than 90 minutes, you should open a new issue because this should not happen.

my tests are running in dashboard more than 22 hours now.. (version 3.2) how I can stop them?

[jennifer-shehane]

@dafiber This should never happen. If you can, please email extra details to support@cypress.io about your run.

Any news regarding the Cancel button? Thanks!

[DennisLoska]

My question is not 100% related, but is there a way to cancel a run/spec when using the Cypress module API? I have not found anything in the docs which would suggest that. I would like to be able to cancel a run with e.g. cy.cancel(), or do I need to run cypress in a Node child process and end the child process in order to end a running test?

holle How to remove test from the dashboard vesion 3.3.1?thanks

[jennifer-shehane]

@DennisLoska You may want to look at some of the workarounds in this issue: #518

@SUSANO-O This is not currently supported. See this issue: #1839

[jhays-nhaschools]

I don't know whether this is technically feasible, but if possible, it would be nice if cancelled runs still had video output.

[SUSANO-O]

hello good day there are examples of how to use window other than cypress documents, muchas gracias.

[rikumo]

Hi. Just I'm having same issue as @dafiber. How do I stop my spec file that has been running for a while now. The job has already failed in circleci. Or even a workaround for this would be appreciated. Thanks.

[ChaseBig]

Hello, any updates on this? @jennifer-shehane

Or any feasible workarounds? 90% of my builds sit there still thinking tests are running even though they're not.
