APITester Cockpit features

Quick access

Sometimes it is convinient to jump directly to a folder or test case with a specific number. For this, use the quick access feature located over the folder list. Choose Folder or Test Case, provide an Id number and click on the “Go” button to be taken to the specified object.

Test case filtering

It’s common for some scenarios and folders to contain high volumes of test cases. To make searching for test cases more convinient we provided a filter feature. Fill in the neccesary filtering criteria over the tests list (e.g. portion of description or automation object name), click “Go” and the test list will be filtered accordingly.
