# Run in cloud

### Why run in the cloud?

Thanks to running in the cloud, you don't need to use your computer to monitor your website for bugs.

Running in the cloud is required for

* [scheduling tests](https://docs.bugbug.io/running-tests/schedules)
* integrating with build pipelines ([running via CLI](https://docs.bugbug.io/running-tests/running-via-api))
* making use of [parallel runs](https://docs.bugbug.io/running-tests/parallel-mode)

### How to run in the cloud?

1. Go to test view and choose `Run in cloud`option on the right. 
2. Then you will use BugBug cloud for your test run:
3. You will not see any window for cloud runs, just observe the status of the test steps

Now that your tests pass in the cloud, you can [set up a schedule to automatically run them every hour](https://docs.bugbug.io/running-tests/schedules).
