Cypress cloud. Better presentation of datetime of run. ISO 8601; Easier copy datetime; embed in URL. #26706

Description

What would you like?

In the cypress cloud I suggest that the date time of a run be easier to reference.

Currently the datetime is presented relatively. E.g. "Ran 2 days ago". Hovering over this gives a tool tip. e.g. "May 8, 2023 04:51 PM".

I suggest the following changes:

  1. Use ISO 8601 for the datetime format. E.g. "2023-05-08 16:51". Or provide this formatting as an account configurable option.
  2. Provide this datetime not as a tooltip but as text beside the relative presentation. E.g. "2023-05-08 16:51 (Ran 2 days ago)"
  3. Provide the datetime in the url. E.g. https://cloud.cypress.io/projects/abc66t/runs/53/20230508T1651/overview

Why is this needed?

When referencing a run to others the datetime has meaning. It's useful to be clear we are talking about a particular ran two days ago rather than another run two and half days ago, etc.

The above suggestions would make it easier to identify a particular run in terms of its datetime; reference it in communication; and copy and paste it into communication. Putting the datetime in the url makes the url self documenting.
