🤖 Custom Tests

Custom Tests in X-AutoMate refer to test cases written in Robot Framework.
They rely entirely on your own custom keywords and packages — making them highly flexible.

📝 Think of a custom test as a blank sheet of paper: you're free to design whatever you need.

🚀 Common Use Cases​

Custom tests are commonly used for:

  • 🖥️ Web UI testing
  • 📱 Mobile application testing
  • 🔌 API validations
  • 🧪 Any other Robot Framework-compatible scenario

📦 Library & Dependency Support​

Out-of-the-box, X-AutoMate includes:

  • 🚀 Core libraries for Web UI testing
  • 📚 Dependencies required for standard Robot Framework execution

💡 Need additional packages or drivers?
Reach out to the X-AutoMate support team, and we’ll help get you set up!

🔗 Git Integration for Custom Tests​

To execute custom tests, you must connect to a Git repository containing your test scripts.
Unlike other test types (which need a DWH connection), custom tests are Git-based.

Steps to Import Custom Tests:​

  1. ✅ Add a desired Git connection in X-AutoMate.
  2. 📥 Click the "Import Custom Test" button.
  3. 📂 X-AutoMate will automatically fetch and register the tests.

▶️ Running Custom Tests​

Once imported, custom tests can be run like any other test in X-AutoMate.

However:

  • ❌ You cannot edit or modify the test definition inside X-AutoMate.
  • 🧩 Custom tests are managed externally in your Git repository.
