Hi Sarah, thanks for the feedback. I use circleci which has very good parallelism. Another big plus is zero config from the start. Any thoughts on circle compared to you guys?
I'll tell you circleci gives us a lot of beaches though. Capybara with selenium webdriver js tests are very unreliable. Do you guys optimise for that at all, or is it more for headless testing?
