Utilize conditional branching

Using conditional commands allows you to perform actions only when specific conditions are met.

Use Cases

• Perform the logout process only if the user is logged in
• Click the "Close" button only if a pop-up is displayed
• Check a checkbox only if it is not already checked

Basic mechanism

When a condition is met, the steps within the following range are executed:

• From after the condition command ("If ~")
• Until before the next conditional branching command ("Otherwise if ~", "Otherwise", "End branch")

For the types of conditions available, please refer to the command list.

Complex conditional branching

By combining "Otherwise if ~" and "Otherwise" commands, you can describe complex test procedures.

Process Flow

1. Check the condition of "If ~"
   • If the condition is met → Execute the commands that follow
   • If the condition is not met → Move to the next conditional branching command
2. Check the condition of "Otherwise if ~"
   • If the condition is met → Execute the commands that follow
   • If the condition is not met → Move to the next conditional branching command
3. "Otherwise"
   • Execute the process when all conditions are not met
4. End the conditional branching block with "End branch"

How to Insert Conditional Branching Commands

When adding "Otherwise if ~" or "Otherwise", you can insert them from the right-click menu.

1. Display the menu using one of the following methods on a step between "If ~" and "End branch":
   • Right-click on the test step
   • Click the menu icon that appears when you hover your mouse cursor over the right edge of the test step
2. Select the command you want to add from "Insert conditional branch command"

※After inserting "Otherwise if ~", use the command selector to change it to the appropriate condition command.

About Structure Errors

When inserting or moving "Otherwise if ~" or "Otherwise", if the structure of the conditional branching becomes inappropriate, a step error will be displayed.

While a step error is displayed, the following operations cannot be performed:

• Test execution
• Creation of shared steps
