Autotest creation
Autotest creation
Autotest creation stores a Playwright scenario in the project so a worker can run it later on a verified team domain. Kind CASE enters the run queue; kind COMMON is reused only as a predecessor.
Prerequisites
- A team member role with write access to the project.
- A project is open in ComplexQA.
Steps
- Open Autotests in the project.
- Create a new autotest.
- Choose kind
CASEorCOMMON. - Set status to
READYwhen the scenario is ready to run (CASEonly enters the queue whenREADY). - Optional for
CASE: bind a test account. - Optional for
CASE: list COMMON predecessors in order. - Add autotest steps: Autotest step authoring. Rules and the action catalog live in Autotest step; per-action how-tos under
/en/autotests/actions/{action_name}. - Optional: run Check syntax on the steps.
- Save.
The autotest is stored in the project. Only READY + CASE items are selectable for Autotest run creation.
