Executing Test Scripts using Squish Framework with Python

Execute algoQA-generated test scripts using the Squish framework with Python — download or import scripts, run scenarios from feature files, and execute tests via command prompt.

Execute algoQA-generated scripts with Squish

Execute test scripts generated by algoQA using the Squish framework with Python. This guide covers downloading or importing scripts into Squish, editing and rerunning them, and the two execution methods available.

Execution of the Test Scripts

When using Squish with algoQA, the generated test scripts will be stored in the same folder. You can choose to either download these test scripts to your local machine or import them into the Squish tool, depending on whether you are accessing the Squish tool on your local machine or a virtual machine.

After opening the scripts in Squish, you can edit, review, and fix any issues, then rerun them.

Execution Options

You can execute scripts in two ways:

Using Feature Files

Open the respective Feature File you want to execute in Squish. You can either execute a single scenario or an individual step by right-clicking on the corresponding scenario outline or an individual step.

To execute the entire Feature File, right-click the respective file without opening it.

Using Command Prompt

Alternatively, you can execute scripts using the command prompt, providing command-line instructions to run your tests.
