Test Management in Supatest provides tools to organize, structure, and maintain your test suite as it grows. From folders and test cases to reusable snippets and tags, you have everything needed to keep your tests organized and maintainable.

Core Concepts

Test Explorer

The Test Explorer is your central hub for managing tests. It displays:
  • Folders - Organize tests into logical groups
  • Test Cases - Individual automated tests
  • Snippets - Reusable step sequences

Hierarchy

Home (Root)
├── Folder: Authentication
│   ├── Test: User can login
│   ├── Test: User can logout
│   └── Snippet: Login flow
├── Folder: Checkout
│   ├── Test: Complete purchase
│   └── Test: Apply discount code
└── Test: Homepage loads

Key Features

What You Can Do

Organize with Folders

  • Create nested folder structures
  • Group tests by feature, team, or priority
  • Drag-and-drop to reorganize
  • Schedule entire folders for execution

Manage Test Cases

  • Create new tests from the Create button
  • Configure title, tags, and folder location
  • Duplicate existing tests
  • Move tests between folders
  • Delete tests you no longer need

Reuse with Snippets

  • Extract common flows (like login) into snippets
  • Insert snippets into any test
  • Update once, apply everywhere
  • Store browser state for efficiency

Categorize with Tags

  • Add tags to tests for filtering
  • Schedule tests by tag
  • Create tag-based reports
  • Quick filtering in Test Explorer

Configure Test Settings

  • Set browser type and viewport
  • Configure timeouts
  • Enable/disable auto-healing
  • Set environment defaults

Organization Best Practices

Folder Structure

Organize by what makes sense for your team: By Feature:
├── Authentication
├── Dashboard
├── Settings
├── Payments
└── Notifications
By Team:
├── Frontend
├── Backend
├── Mobile
└── Integration
By Priority:
├── Smoke Tests
├── Regression
├── Edge Cases
└── Performance

Naming Conventions

Tests:
  • Use action-oriented names: “User can reset password”
  • Be specific: “Guest checkout with credit card”
  • Include the outcome: “Search returns relevant results”
Folders:
  • Keep names short and clear
  • Use consistent capitalization
  • Avoid deep nesting (2-3 levels max)
Tags:
  • Use lowercase: smoke, regression, p0
  • Keep tags consistent across tests
  • Document tag meanings for your team

Maintenance Tips

  1. Regular cleanup - Remove obsolete tests
  2. Update snippets - Keep shared flows current
  3. Review tags - Consolidate similar tags
  4. Flatten deep structures - Don’t over-nest folders
