Headless CI with GitHub Actions

If you're looking to setup your test suite for headless testing in a CI pipeline, then you'll want to ensure you have this configured in your wdio.conf.js capabilities:

{
    // ...   
    capabilities: [{
        browserName: 'electron',
        // Electron service options
        // see https://webdriver.io/docs/desktop-testing/electron/configuration/#service-options
        'wdio:electronServiceOptions': {
            appArgs: ['--headless', '--no-sandbox']
        }
    }]
}
