Without returning it, the step will run synchronously and will resolve when the last line of code is executed, regardless of the expected results. To run async code in the CLI step, you have to return the promise you wish to resolve. If you have defined parameters, you can refer to those parameters in your code. In the function editor, enter your desired code.To assign a relevant name to the parameter/variable, click on the edit icon and enter the desired name. The selected element is automatically named “param” or “packageVariable” (depending on whether you chose a JS parameter or NPM package variable). Package parameter: If you would like to add an NPM package variable, select Package from the dropdown list and type in the package variable.ĭ. JS parameter: If you would like to add a JavaScript parameter, select JS from the dropdown list and type in the JavaScript parameter.Ĭ. In the Properties panel, click the + PARAMS button.ī. Define the parameters you will need for your step as follows:Ī.The default description is “ Run CLI validation” (or “ Run CLI action”). In the Properties panel, in the Description field, optionally edit the description of this step.The function editor opens, and the Properties panel opens on the right-hand side. Otherwise, deselect the checkbox.įor more information about shared steps, see Groups. If this is a shared step to be made available to reuse in this or other tests, keep the box next to Shared step selected (default), and choose a folder from the Select shared step folder list where you want this step stored.In the Name the new step field, enter a name for this step.Scroll down through the menu and select Add CLI validation (or Add CLI action).Īlternatively, you can use the search box at the top of the menu to search for Add CLI validation (or Add CLI action).The Validations (or Actions) menu expands. Click on the “ M” (Testim predefined steps).Hover over the (arrow symbol) (or + symbol after the final step) where you want to add the CLI step.
The general procedure for adding a CLI step is the same regardless of whether you are adding an Add CLI action step or an Add CLI validation step. For more information, see Validate download.
In addition to the Add CLI validation and Add CLI action steps, there is also the Validate download step, which is a specialized CLI step which allows you to validate that the download content of various file types are as expected. We support all of the standard methods for defining package dependencies. The real power of CLI steps comes from the ability to add any node package directly from npm (or any other source) and have those packages scoped to the CLI step during the execution of the test.
However, unlike custom validations and actions, CLI actions and validations open the gateway for some very advanced actions such as database validation and manipulation, image and PDF validations, and other validations. These scripts are initiated from inside a test just like a standard custom action. In addition to writing custom validations and actions (which execute in the browser run-time environment), you can also create custom Node.js scripts that are executed in your CLI environment.
