Configuring a test plan

Prev Next

You can configure a test plan immediately after creation or by clicking on its name in the Test Plan window. This document outlines the different options you can use to configure how a test plan executes its scenarios.

Test plan settings

Browser language

Sets the language used by the browser during test execution.

Timezone

Sets the timezone used by a browser. During test execution, the browser will behave as if the local time was in the selected timezone.

URL replacements

Modifies URLs used by scenarios in the test plan during test execution. For example, if you originally recorded a scenario on your development website dev.autify.com and now want to use the same scenario on your production website autify.com to confirm those changes, your configuration would be as follows:

Search for dev.autify.com

Replace with autify.com

With this configuration applied, during test execution, a step that navigates to dev.autify.com/products would instead navigate to autify.com/products . You can add as many URL replacements to a test plan as needed.

URL replacements only change URLs in “Navigate to” steps.

Advanced options

Overrides advanced browser settings during test execution. Only use this field if you are instructed to do so by Autify’s support team.

Execution environment

Local execution

This is the only option for test plans in local workspaces. Choose a browser and a device, if needed, to use during test execution. The device selected is a browser emulator and not a real device. If you do not select a device, your tests will run in a normal desktop browser at your specified.

Cloud execution

This feature is only for test plans on remote workspaces.

Choose an operating system (OS), browser, and a device, if needed, to use during test execution. The device selected is a browser emulator and not a real device. If you do not select a device, your tests will run in a normal desktop browser at your specified.

Scenarios

Choose the scenarios to include in the test plan. The way to specify the scenarios depends on the type of test plan.

Convert the test plan

In the top right of the “Scenarios” section, you can click Convert to dynamic test plan or Convert to static test plan to convert between test plan types.

Adding scenarios to a static test plan

Clicking the + button on a scenario in the “Searched scenarios” list adds it to the test plan.

Removing scenarios from a static test plan

Clicking the x button on a scenario in the “Added scenarios” list removes it from the test plan.

Specifying conditions to select scenarios for a dynamic test plan

You can specify the conditions for a dynamic test plan by using the search field, applying labels, or specifying directories to filter your scenarios. All scenarios in your workspace that meet these conditions will be executed when running the test plan. For more information, read about dynamic test plans in Types of test plans.

If no conditions are specified, your dynamic test plan will run all scenarios in the workspace.
