Desired Behavior

I would like to have the ability to select the platform on which to run molecule test.

I think molecule used to have a --platform option, but it seems to have been removed.

Our use case is to run molecule test against our dev instance, and if it succeed, then re-run on our pre-prod instance.

Actual Behaviour (Bug report only)

molecule test --platform dev
Error: no such option: --platform

molecule test --platform-name dev
Error: no such option: --platform-name

Hi @erjac77 this is not an option we support. Molecule v2 is different than v1.

Ok, but is there a way to limit molecule test to a specific platform/instance without duplicating all the scenarios for each environment?

Thank you.
