Cypress test suites can be monitored over time by using plugin lifecycle hooks to convert per-spec and per-test results, including pass and failure counts, durations, and execution states, into Prometheus metrics. Because Cypress jobs are short-lived, the approach sends accumulated metrics from each completed spec to a Prometheus Pushgateway, which preserves them for Grafana Alloy to scrape and remote-write to Grafana Cloud Metrics. A shared suite-level run ID and optional GitHub Actions run ID enable dashboards to group results by test execution, spec, and CI workflow, helping teams identify flaky tests, failing specs, and performance regressions. The setup keeps monitoring separate from test outcomes by catching metric-push errors, escapes free-text labels to preserve valid Prometheus formatting, and can be enabled through environment variables for either local development or CI environments.
