TestStep Settings Feature

Modified on Thu, 26 Mar at 12:27 PM

1. Overview

Test Step Settings refer to a set of configurable parameters that define how each test step is executed. These settings allow the user to customize various aspects of the test step by selecting options from a dropdown list to control specific behaviors.

You can access TestStep Settings drop down list in Edit step while editing a scenario.

Navigate to the Scenario List > Scenario Steps List >  choose the particular step you wish to edit by clicking the edit icon of the corresponding step and click Show More Options to view TestStep Settings


2. Using TestStep Settings

The following table provides each parameter usage:
