Pack and Upload commands

if you want to create the archive and use it later, for example if you have tests that running periodically. you can create the archive:

perfecto-cypress pack
perfecto-cypress upload --folderType=PUBLIC --temporary=false

copy the artifact id from the upload command output. for example: PUBLIC:perfecto-cypress.zip Now you can any time cal run command:

perfecto-cypress run --tests.artifactKey=PUBLIC:perfecto-cypress.zip

it will skip the pack and upload steps and just execute the tests stored in the provided archive.
