Running bruno folder not working from outside the folder

[lisamackul]

I have checked the following:

• I use the newest version of bruno.
• I've searched existing issues and found nothing related to my issue.

Describe the bug

The command bru run bruno-tests always returns an error message although the folder is existing. Running a folder only works when I am in the folder on the console and run bru run.

Following are more failing command versions:

• bru run ./bruno-tests (-r)
• bru run ./bruno-tests/ (-r)
• bru run bruno-tests/ (-r)

Error message: You can run only at the root of a collection.

.bru file to reproduce the bug

Do you run within the context of something like a pipeline?

For instance if you’re using Azure pipelines you can use -script
To make your bru call. That allows you to set a workingDirectory as part of the setup. Thats how I deal with it.

Yes, I run it in the context of a GitLab pipeline. But I also tested it locally and it didn't work there is well. According to the bruno documentation it's supposed to work without -script locally, right?
The screenshot I provided is from my local terminal, not from the pipeline.

Hi @lisamackul, can you share the directory structure and the command you are using to run the folder? Thanks!

@sreelakshmi-bruno Do you mean the folder structure of my project?
On my pipeline I solved it by entering the folder (cd bruno-tests) and then I ran the command bru run --reporter-html bruno-results.html. On my local machine I would have to do the same.
But when I run one of the following commands without entering the folder (locally and on GitLab) it will show the error:

• bru run bruno-tests
• bru run ./bruno-tests
• bru run ./bruno-tests/
• bru run bruno-tests/

When running those commands I was in the main directory of my project. I also tried adding -r to the commands which also didn't change anything.

For Azure here’s the gyst of a template I’ve created for use for running Bruno.

Thanks but I don't use Azure. I use the GitLab Pipeline.
