Configure Execution Strategy

After uploading and applying a Data Source to your test case, the next step is to configure how the test case should execute using that data.

Robonito allows you to define an execution strategy to control how many times and in what way your test case should run with the uploaded data.

Steps to Configure Execution Strategy

1. Open Test Explorer

• Go to the Test Explorer from the Robonito dashboard.
• Select any test case that you want to configure.

2. Click the Execute Button

• In the top menu bar, click the Execute button.
• This will open a drawer listing all available browser configurations (e.g., Chrome, Firefox).

3. Select a Configuration to Edit

• Click on any of the listed configurations.
• A new drawer will open to edit the selected configuration.

Apply Data Source Configuration

In the configuration drawer:

1. Click on the "Apply Data Source" option.
2. This will show the Data Source Strategy Configuration Panel.
3. Choose a strategy and fill the necessary details.

Available Execution Strategies

1. Sequential Strategy

Run the test case in the exact order of rows from the data source.

• Use when you want to test specific rows.

• You can specify a range of rows.

• Example:

strategy: sequential
range:
  start: 1
  end: 10

• This will run the test case from row 1 to row 10 of the data source.

2. Random Strategy

Run the test case using random rows from the data source.

• Use when you want to simulate random behavior.

• Just specify how many times the test case should execute.

• Example:

strategy: random
times: 5

• This will execute the test case 5 times, picking random rows each time.

Final Step

Once you've configured the strategy:

• Click Save or Update on the configuration.
• Now when you execute the test case, Robonito will run it using the selected strategy and data source values.
