We are currently trying to run our tests in multiple browsers and eventually run those over our Lambdatest instance, nonetheless we haven't been able to even run them "locally" in multiple browsers nor the less at Lambdatest as when we try to run them using the run-workers |number| all, we are getting the error that I wrote in the discussion title, so maybe (most likely) we are missing some pre-requisites to be fulfilled prior to be able to run the actual multiple feature?

The command that we are running is:
npx codeceptjs run-workers 3 all -c codecept.conf.POCCrossBrowser.ts --features --grep @CrossBrowserPOC

The specifics of the error are the following:

Could not load helper multiple from module './helper/multiple':

  plugins: {
  //disabled for POC purposes
    cucumberJsonReporter: { enabled: false},
    stats: { enabled: false },
  },
}
}

const config = merge(defaultConfig,webConfig);
export {config}

Any guidance for this issue would be greatly appreciated as we cannot find any information or similar issues around the only and even have other people that got it to work without any hassle, like this one -- https://codecept.discourse.group/t/running-tests-across-multiple-browsers-in-playwright/761/2

Thanks in advance!

@clundstedt-m Which CodeceptJS version are you using? As I see the multiple profiles is supported from https://codecept.io/changelog/#_3-5-0

@kobenguyent It is the latest available as of today

@clundstedt-m looks like you put the multiple config inside helpers which is not correct.

const webConfig = {
  helpers: {
    Playwright: {
      url: 'https://demo.applitools.com/',
      show: true,
      waitForNavigation: 'networkidle',
      desiredCapabilities: {}
    },
    multiple: {
    ...

it should be the same level with helpers

exports.config = {
  helpers: {
    WebDriver: {
      url: 'http://localhost:3000',
      desiredCapabilties: {}
    }
  },
  multiple: {
    profile1: {
      browsers: [
        {
          browser: "firefox",
...

My bad in the example given I had an "extra tab" therefore showing at a level beneath the helpers, but this is the actual/updated one (that still throws the same error)

import * as dotenv from 'dotenv';
dotenv.config();

exports.config = {
  helpers: {
    Playwright: {
      url: 'https://demo.applitools.com/',
      show: true,
      waitForNavigation: 'networkidle',
      desiredCapabilities: {},
    },
  multiple: {
    profile1: {
      browsers: [
        {
          browser: "chrome",
          desiredCapabilties: {
            'browserName': 'Chrome',
            'browserVersion': '114.0',
            'LT:Options': {
              'platform': 'Windows 10',
              'build': 'LT Poc with Playwright',
              'name': 'Chrome - LT Test',
              'user': process.env.LT_USERNAME,
              'accessKey': process.env.LT_KEY,
              'network': true,
              'video': true,
              'console': true
            }
          }
        },
        {
          browser: "firefox",
          desiredCapabilties: {
            'browserName': 'pw-firefox',
            'browserVersion': 'latest',
            'LT:Options': {
              'platform': 'Windows 10',
              'build': 'LT Poc with Playwright',
              'name': 'Firefox - LT Test',

      url: 'https://github.com',
      show: false,
      browser: 'chromium',
      waitForNavigation: 'load',
      waitForTimeout: 30_000,
      trace: true,

    },
  },

I could not trigger trigger with all but profile1 works for me.

You are right, I don't why or how but if I copy your conf.ts structure (just like it is) and run it I get the profile1 in this case to be able to run, but with the run all case I get the following:

run all was not configured in "multiple" section of config

Anyway, thanks @kobenguyent ! I think it was an issue with the several indentation or something around those edges 😖

@clundstedt-m it's actually a bug. Would be fixed by https://github.com/codeceptjs/CodeceptJS/pull/3805/files

Thanks for your replies @kobenguyent
Closing this discussion as we can cope with just one profile in the time being.

Thanks again and keep up the amazing work you guys are doing!
