The test definition is the core of your Momentic test. It describes what actions to perform, what elements to interact with, and how to verify the results. You can write the test definition in natural language, and Momentic will convert it into browser interactions at runtime.

​
Test actions

There is a toolbar at the top of the editor that provides various actions to manage your test definition.
Here are the available actions:
  • Add new step: Create a new step in your test definition.
  • Record: Start recording a new test definition. This will open the browser in recording mode, allowing you to interact with the app and automatically generate steps based on your actions.
  • Create module: Create a reusable module from selection of steps. This allows you to share logic across multiple tests.
  • Run from start: Execute the test definition from the beginning. This will reset the browser and run all steps in order.

​
Step actions

If you hover over each step, you will see action buttons that allow you to execute, edit, delete, or move the step.
Here are the available actions (from left to right):
  • Run: Execute the step immediately.
  • Run to: Execute the step and all previous steps.
  • Run from: Execute the step and all subsequent steps.
  • Edit: Modify the step’s content.
  • Duplicate: Create a copy of the step.
  • Move up: Move the step one position up in the list.
  • Move to top: Move the step to the top of the list.
  • Move down: Move the step one position down in the list.
  • Move to bottom: Move the step to the bottom of the list.
  • Add before: Insert a new step before the current one.
  • Add after: Insert a new step after the current one.
  • Delete: Remove the step from the test definition.

​
Editing steps

You can edit a step by clicking on the Edit button. This will open a text editor where you can modify the step’s content. Hover over labels to see tooltips with more information about each option.
