Overview

Folders help you organize tests into logical groups. Create hierarchies that match your application structure, team organization, or testing priorities.

​
Creating Folders

​
From Header

  1. Click Create button
  2. Select New Folder
  3. Enter folder name
  4. Select parent location (Home or existing folder)
  5. Click Create

​
From Context Menu

  1. Right-click on a folder
  2. Select New Folder
  3. Creates subfolder inside the selected folder

​
Folder Structure

​
Hierarchy

Folders can be nested to create hierarchies: 
Home
├── Authentication
│   ├── Login
│   ├── Registration
│   └── Password Reset
├── E-commerce
│   ├── Product Catalog
│   ├── Shopping Cart
│   └── Checkout
└── Settings
    ├── Profile
    └── Notifications

​
Best Practices

Keep it shallow:
  • 2-3 levels maximum
  • Deep nesting makes navigation difficult
  • Flat structures are easier to maintain
Use meaningful names:
  • Describe the contents clearly
  • Avoid abbreviations
  • Be consistent (all plural or all singular)
Organize by ownership: 
├── Team: Frontend
│   ├── Feature: Dashboard
│   └── Feature: Search
├── Team: Backend
│   └── Feature: API

​
Managing Folders

​
Rename

  1. Right-click the folder
  2. Select Rename
  3. Enter new name
  4. Press Enter or click outside

​
Move

Drag and Drop:
  1. Click and hold the folder
  2. Drag to new location
  3. Drop on target folder or Home
To Root:
  1. Drag folder to Home area
  2. Folder moves to root level

​
Delete

  1. Right-click the folder
  2. Select Delete
  3. Confirm deletion
Deleting a folder also deletes all tests and subfolders inside it. This cannot be undone.

​
Folder Organization Strategies

​
By Feature Area

├── Authentication
├── User Management
├── Dashboard
├── Reports
├── Settings
└── Integrations
Best for: Product-focused teams, feature development

​
By Test Type

├── Smoke Tests
├── Regression
├── Integration
├── Edge Cases
└── Performance
Best for: QA teams, CI/CD pipelines

​
By User Journey

├── Onboarding
│   ├── Sign Up
│   ├── Email Verification
│   └── Profile Setup
├── Core Usage
│   ├── Daily Tasks
│   └── Key Features
└── Account Management
Best for: User experience focus, E2E testing

​
By Priority

├── P0 - Critical
├── P1 - High
├── P2 - Medium
└── P3 - Low
Best for: Risk-based testing, release planning

​
Folder Actions

​
Context Menu Options

ActionDescription
New Test CaseCreate test in this folder
New SnippetCreate snippet in this folder
New FolderCreate subfolder
RenameChange folder name
DeleteRemove folder and contents

​
Bulk Operations

Select multiple folders to:
  • Move to another location
  • Delete together
  • Export tests

​
Scheduling by Folder

Folders integrate with Test Plans:
  1. Create a Test Plan
  2. Add entire folder to the plan
  3. All tests in folder are included
  4. New tests added to folder automatically included
This makes folder organization crucial for scheduling.

​
Tips

​
Don’t Over-Organize

  • Start simple, add structure as needed
  • One test can only be in one folder
  • Use tags for cross-cutting concerns
  • Tests that share setup should be nearby
  • Makes snippet extraction easier
  • Simplifies batch operations

​
Plan for Growth

  • Choose a structure that scales
  • Leave room for new features
  • Review and reorganize periodically
