Rules
- Reorder steps with increase / decrease sort order actions in the product and in the API.
- Configuration values such as
id,css,click, andload_pageare metadata for targeting. They do not run automation by themselves. - Optional step text fields can be cleared after they already had text. Saving an empty value leaves the field empty.
Limits
- An autotest step is a different element type. Playwright action names belong there, not on a test case step.
