How to run multiple specs parallel with single conf.js?

Question

I've splitted my project from one huge test to a few smaller to speed up tests and avoid some errors. Is there any way to run all of them parallel with single conf file? I must pass through login.js before every testcase specs: ['login.js', 'test1.js'],

Do you have multiple describe blocks in any of your new tests? — DublinDev, Mar 07 '19 at 16:33
@DublinDev yes, every test is splited - describe blocks for main menu, adding, viewing, cloning and deleting, then every describe is splited to it blocks containing expects — CzescTuSlawomr, Mar 08 '19 at 11:55
@Madhan thx, but i can't disable login to site, so i must then paste this login spec to my every new spec file to work it properly? — CzescTuSlawomr, Mar 08 '19 at 11:55
@CzescTuSlawomr Create suite and run them in separate browsers. Refer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30331018/suites-vs-specs-protractor — Madhan Raj, Mar 08 '19 at 13:58

I suggest changing your login.js spec into a file which exports a login function. Then create a beforeAll in your onPrepare in your conf. This will be executed before every describe block, which in your case is every test.

onPrepare: function {
    beforeAll(function(){
        loginToApp();           
    });
};

I know you have already split up the files but I would seriously consider using the page object model to structure your tests if you have the time.
