Run cypress test without using the GUI

Is it possible to run a Cypress test without using the GUI where you can choose the test file. Currently I open it this way:

I type in CMD: node_modules/.bin/cypress open and then the GUI pops up where I can choose my test.

Is there a command which avoids that the GUI is popping up and what is the command?

You can run with command line in headed like this:

node_modules\\.bin\\cypress run --headed

this will run the tests by default in Electron browser.

And headless:

node_modules\\.bin\\cypress run

Yes, it is cypress run. It is all described in the documentation.

To run a specific file, you need to pass --spec argument, like this:

node_modules/.bin/cypress run --spec "cypress/integration/nameOfTheTest.js"
