Test step (Pipeline) not displaying despite being configured

Question

After the AWS Amplify interface update, the test step that used to run after the build is no longer being displayed. I have already configured the amplify.yml file, and it is possible to see in the build log that the tests were executed. I would like to know if the test step was removed in this new interface or if I need to make a new configuration in addition to amplify.yml and the USER_DISABLE_TESTS variable?

Before the interface update

After the interface update

And this is the test section of my amplify.yml

```
test:
  phases:
    preTest:
      commands:
        - pnpm install http-server@14.1.1
        - pnpm install start-server-and-test@2.0.4
        - pnpm install cypress@10.3.0
        - pnpm install @cypress/webpack-preprocessor@5.12.0
        - pnpm install @badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor@11.5.1
    test:
      commands:
        - npx start-server-and-test serve-build 5173
  artifacts:
    baseDirectory: cypress
    configFilePath: "**/mochawesome.json"
    files:
      - "**/*.png"
      - "**/*.mp4"
```

The Amplify team is aware of this feature and they are working on adding this test phase back in the near future.

As a workaround, I suggest using the AWS CLI to access the Test Artifacts[1][2]. The GetJob API Endpoint returns a testArtifactsUrl field which contains "The URL to the test artifact for the execution step." The CLI Command will be:

` $ aws amplify get-job --region  --app-id  --branch-name  --job-id `
