Manual test step
The manual test step suspends the test automation until manual actions are performed. At the start of the step execution, an email is sent out to the given email address including the description of the required actions. The email also contains a link where the result of the step can be reported. If a result report is not made in the set timeout, the step fails.
|
For security reasons, we recommend including the description of the required actions in the form of a link to a secure knowledge base or wiki only. |
The result of the manual action can be reported by visiting the link included in the sent email. The result report requires the status of the action and a free text progress report. The status is either FINISHED or FAILED. The free text result report is saved in Wenenu as the result of the manual step.
|
A single manual test step execution generates execution time charges only up to 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, no execution time cost is charged. |

For security reasons, do not display any sensitive information in the step result. |
