Ability to configure virtual display size

[wadeww]

I'm trying to run e2e tests for an electron app in the macOS runner using Spectron. I have some tests that are failing because the window size is too small even though I've maximized the application. It looks like the virtual display size is being set to 1176 x 694. Is there any way to configure the default display size in the macOS runner (or any of the virtual environments)?

We should start by investigating any side-effects of this.

Hello, @wadeww

We have extended ability to set screen resolution size to a maximum size - 2560 x 1600.

Example how to change in runtime:

- name: screen resolution
      run: |
        system_profiler SPDisplaysDataType | grep Resolution
        "/Library/Application Support/VMware Tools/vmware-resolutionSet" 2560 1440
        system_profiler SPDisplaysDataType | grep Resolution

Feel free to open the thread if you have any concerns.
