Running Tests
Tests in QA.tech can be run in several ways.
Trigger a Run from the UI
The simplest way to get started is to use the “Run Tests” button found on the Dashboard or the Test Cases page.
You can also run individual tests by navigating to the test and clicking Run Test.
Trigger a Run as Part of a Pipeline
You can also integrate test runs as part of your CI pipeline.
You can use any system that supports sending an HTTPS POST request when you want to trigger the tests.
For a great example, check out our GitHub Actions documentation.
Trigger a Run on a Schedule
If you want your tests to run at a specific time, such as on a recurring weekly schedule (cron-style), we offer that functionality as well.
- Go to Results and press the Schedule button.
- Follow the instructions provided to set up the schedule.
If you’re unsure how to write the cron format, you can use a tool like crontab.guru or reach out to us, and we’ll be happy to help you get set up.
