Command line flags¶

After a configuration file is loaded, you can override specific settings using command-line flags.

Example¶

chainsaw test                         \
  path/to/test/dir                    \
  --config path/to/your/config.yaml   \
  --assert-timeout 45s                \
  --skip-delete false                 \
  --fail-fast true                    \
  --parallel 4                        \
  ...

In this example, Chainsaw will load a configuration file but the timeout configuration and other settings will be overridden by the values set in the flags, regardless of the value in the loaded configuration file.
