Using Cypress, how do I record the results as a video and then locate the folder that it's stored in?

I'm using Cypress. No issues. All tests run fine. However, I am confused about how to record the results as a video and then how to locate the folder that contains the video.

I have tried to locate the cypress/video folder per the documentation with no luck. I even tried changing the default location to folder on my C drive but the folder was not populated with the video.

Are there other steps required to initiate the recording?

Cypress will start recording videos only if it is running from the command line or in headless mode. After running the Cypress test you should see a video getting created under the Cypress root folder.

Lets say you have the whole Cypress project in C:\Demo\ and the test is called test-spec.js available under the integration\examples folder.

Now cd to that Demo folder, then run the Cypress command like this:

`C:\Demo\node_modules\.bin\cypress run "C:\Demo\cypress\integration\examples\test-spec.js"`

If you have multiple spec files to run:

`C:\Demo\node_modules\.bin\cypress run "C:\Demo\cypress\integration\examples\"` 

Also, make sure that the following settings are true in your cypress.config.ts:

video: true,
videoCompression: 32,
videoUploadOnPasses: true,

Also, remember that there was an issue with Cypress recording blank videos.
