--kill-others --kill-signal=SIGINT exits process with code 1

[dankerk]

I don't know if this is a bug or a feature request or if I'm simply not understanding how to properly use this package.

• Description:
  I'm trying to run a web server, then run some e2e tests. When the tests complete successfully, the web server process is ended with SIGTERM, causing NPM to think the tests failed.
  If I don't kill the web server, the task keeps running forever/times out.

I've tried concurrently --kill-others --kill-signal=SIGINT "start server" && "run e2e tests"
as well as concurrently --kill-others --success last "start server" && "run e2e tests"

• Expected Behaviour:
  Processes exit with code 0, NPM thinks (rightfully) that tests pass.

• Environment:
  In an Azure devOps pipeline running Linux 5.15.0-1074-azure,
  v18.20.5,
  Concurrently 9.1.0

• Reproduction: A way to reproduce the issue
  concurrently --kill-others --kill-signal=SIGINT "start server" && "run e2e tests"
  or concurrently --kill-others --success last "start server" && "run e2e tests"

Would you be able to see whether I'm doing something wrong if this is a feature request or bug?
Many thanks.

I started fresh today and decided to give it one another crack. As it turns out I didn't configure the command properly.

I should have used --success first instead of --success last.

For anyone facing a similar problem (I think I saw one or two similar issues), consider this:

"your-concurrently-script.js":

const concurrently = require('concurrently');

/** Start dev server */
const startDevServer = 'nx run your-project:serve:development';

/** Wait until dev server is ready, then start running e2e tests */
const startE2eTests = 'wait-on https://localhost:4200 && nx run your-project-e2e:playwright:e2e';

const commands = [startDevServer, startE2eTests];

/** Consider NPM task successful after the first process that exits, exits. Kill other processes when the first command fails or the second command succeeds */
const options = { successCondition: 'first', killOthers: ['failure', 'success'] };

const { result } = concurrently(commands, options);
result.then(
	() => {
		console.log('Successfully ran e2e tests');
	},
	() => {
		console.log('Failed to run e2e tests');
	}
);

In your package.json:

...
"concurrently-fun": "node your-concurrently-script.js"
...
}```
