Design and manage your test case

You have an empty test case, and you have modules that you created by scanning. So far, so good!

If you haven't yet, check out our best practices for test case content to learn golden rules for creating useful test cases.

Once you're ready to start building an automated test sequence, add these elements, also referred to as assets, to your test case:

• Modules, which are the technical representations of parts of your application in Tosca Cloud. They help you define how Tosca Cloud interacts with your application at runtime.

  You can use modules you created by scanning, or you can use standard modules. Standard modules are pre-built modules for common tasks that Tosca Cloud provides out of the box.

• Reusable test steps, which are steps that you maintain in a central location and reuse in multiple test cases. They help you reduce test maintenance effort.

• Logic elements, which are elements that add structure to your test case: groups and if statements. They help you keep your test cases easy to read and allow you to design dynamic test sequences for specific conditions or criteria.

• Parameters, which let you define a value once and reuse it across your test cases, playlists, workspaces, and tenant. They reduce repetition, keep values consistent, and lower maintenance effort.

• Test step folders, which are organizational elements in your test case. They help make even complex test flows easy to read, understand, and work with. To add a folder, go to Standard objects > Structural objects > Test step folder and add the folder to your test case. Then drag and drop test steps into the folder.

You can find all design elements in the test case editor. To access the test case editor, go to Test cases and select your test case.
