Test Run Pack Wizard

Overview 

The Test Run Pack Wizard is an intuitive, step-by-step interface that simplifies the creation and scheduling of automated test run packs. It guides users through five structured stages — from defining the pack name to configuring notifications and scheduling executions — ensuring that test runs are consistently repeatable, properly authenticated, and fully traceable across environments. 

Step 1 of 5 – Pack Configuration 

In this initial step, users define the foundational details of the test run pack. 

• Pack Name: Enter a unique identifier for the test pack. 

• Description (optional): Provide contextual information such as “Runs user auth tests before deployment.” 

• Pack Status: 

• • Enabled — Pack will execute as per its configured schedule. 

• • Disabled — Pack remains inactive until manually triggered or enabled. 

This step ensures that every test run pack is clearly defined and appropriately categorized before proceeding. 

Step 2 of 5 – Project & Test Case Selection 

This stage links the test run pack to a specific project and allows users to select which test cases to include. 

• Project Selection: Choose from available projects (e.g., UQualio Final). 

• Filtering Options: Narrow down test cases by method (GET, POST, PUT), type, endpoint, or tag. 

• Search Functionality: Quickly locate specific cases using keyword filters. 

• Grouping by Tag: Organize test cases for easier navigation. 

• Selection Mode : 

• • Select individual cases or use Select All for bulk selection. 

• Preview: Review each test’s details (method, endpoint, tags) before confirmation. 

This step ensures precision in choosing relevant tests for execution under the selected project. 

Step 3 of 5 – Environment & Execution Configuration 

Define the technical parameters for test execution, including environments, authentication, and performance settings. 

Base URLs by Environment :

• Configure URLs for environments such as Development, Staging, QA, Production, and Custom. 

• Use Auto-pick from project to inherit pre-defined base URLs. 

Execution Mode :

• Sequential — Tests run one after another. 

• Parallel — Multiple tests execute concurrently for faster throughput. 

Timeout Configuration :

• Define maximum time (in seconds) each test can run before timing out. (Default: 30s) 

Authentication Profile :

• Auto-pick Default — Uses the project’s default profile. 

• Manual Selection — Override individual test settings with a chosen authentication profile (e.g., apiKeyBearer). 

• Advanced Overrides — Customize profile details and apply environment-specific authorizations. 

This configuration ensures consistent and secure test execution across selected environments. 

Step 4 of 5 – Notification Settings 

Enable and personalize alerts for test outcomes to keep stakeholders informed in real-time. 

Notification Triggers :

• On All Tests Passing 

• On Any Test Failing 

• On Test Completion 

• On Execution Error 

Recipient Configuration :

• Add TO and CC recipients individually or in bulk (comma-separated). 

• Supports adding names and email addresses for personalized notifications. 

Delivery Channel :

• Email (via configured email profiles). 

Email Template :

• Choose from default templates (e.g., Summary) or customize. 

• Options to include: 

• Link to detailed report. 

• Individual test details for in-depth visibility. 

This step automates communication, ensuring timely updates on test results. 

Step 5 of 5 – Schedule & Finalize 

Configure when and how often the test run pack will execute. 

Scheduling Options :

• Start Date & Time: Define exact execution start point. 

• Timezone: Select relevant timezone (auto-detects user’s region). 

• Repeat Options: 

• Once — One-time execution. 

Repeat Patterns : #

The wizard supports flexible scheduling patterns for a variety of testing cadences: 

 1.  Every X Minutes :

• Runs every X minutes (1–1440 range). 
• Suitable for high-frequency monitoring or smoke tests. 
• Example preview: 

05 Oct 2025, 09:14 → 09:24 → 09:34 → 09:44 → 09:54 GMT+5:30 
 

2. Every X Hours :

• Runs every X hours (1–168 range; up to 1 week). 
• Ideal for performance or regression cycles. 
• Example preview: 

05 Oct 2025, 10:04 → 11:04 → 12:04 → 13:04 → 14:04 GMT+5:30 
 

3. Daily :

• Executes once per day at the defined time. 
• Example preview: 

06 Oct 2025 → 07 Oct 2025 → 08 Oct 2025 → 09 Oct 2025 → 10 Oct 2025 (09:04 GMT+5:30) 
 

4. Weekly :

• Runs on selected days of the week (Mon–Sun). 
• Ideal for sprint-based QA workflows or weekend regression tests. 
• Preview is dynamically generated based on selected days. 

5. Monthly :

• Executes on a specific day each month. 
• Best suited for monthly sanity or release verification suites. 
• Preview lists upcoming monthly executions. 

6. Custom (Cron Expression) :

• Supports advanced scheduling via CRON syntax. 
• Example: 0 30 14 * * MON-FRI (runs at 2:30 PM, Monday–Friday). 
• Preview not supported due to expression flexibility.

End Conditions : #

Define how long the schedule remains active: 

• Run Forever – Continues indefinitely. 

• Until Date – Ends on a specific date. 

• Repeat X Times – Runs for a finite number of iterations. 

Preview of Upcoming Runs : #

Displays the next scheduled executions (e.g., 
05 Oct 2025, 09:14 / 09:24 / 09:34 / 09:44 / 09:54 GMT+5:30). 

Final Actions :

• Save Pack — Store the configuration. 

• Save & Run Now — Instantly execute after saving. 

• Schedule Test Run — Activate the schedule for automated runs. 

This final stage confirms and activates the test pack, ensuring consistent and traceable automated testing cycles. 

Key Benefits : #

• Guided step-by-step setup minimizes configuration errors. 

• Supports dynamic scheduling and authentication management. 

• Integrated notifications for proactive issue tracking. 

• Reusable, scalable framework for recurring test executions. 

• Full control over environments, logging, and reporting behavior.
