Manual Testing using GitHub

A Test Management tool fully integrated with GitHub

Manual Test using Repositories

Test Management tool enabling testers to follow the same implementation process as software development. Built-in version control, branching, and pull requests for reviews. Manual tests are implemented as plain-text markdown files and stored in GitHub repositories.

Testers can use the new GitHub's lightweight editor called "GitHub.dev". This application runs entirely in your browser.

Manual Repository Tests automatically discovered

Testspace discovers manual tests stored in repositories. The files are presented as executable test instructions, allowing testers to provide status. Tracking issues can also be auto-generated for Jira and GitHub.

Manual Coding using a Template language

More advanced manual test implementation can leverage Shopify's "Liquid" template language. This language enables manual test cases to leverage variables, subroutines, and conditional logic.

Testspace has built-in support for Liquid. GitHub also supports the Liquid template language for their Pages (websites).

Manual Execution integrated with GitHub Actions

Automated fixtures, leveraging GitHub Actions, can be integrated with Manual test execution. The automation ensures that the test is in a well-known state before a tester executes any instructions.

Fixtures can reduce tedious and redundant setup/teardown execution requirements. Fixtures are serverless scripts that require no installation steps for testers.

AWS Lambdas also work as fixtures.
