While Loop

While Loop enables a test case to repeatedly execute a set of steps as long as a specified condition evaluates to true, allowing controlled and condition-based iteration within the test flow.

If certain steps need to be repeated until a condition becomes false (for example, retry login until successful), add them under the While section.

• Click "While Loop" to add a loop block in the test case.

• Set Condition for While - Choose how to set the condition:

  • Element

  • Parameter

• Element - Choose "Element" when the condition depends on an object (UI element, text, etc.) on the screen.

  • From the dropdown, select the required option:

    • Conditions (is visible, is not visible)

    • Actions

    • Interactions (click, type, focus, etc.)

  • Select the required "Object" (stored using XPath / Playwright).

  • Set Max iterations (default: 100).

    • Example: To retry login until the success message appears:

      • While "Login Successful" message is not visible → condition is true

      • If the message becomes visible → condition becomes false

      • The system will keep retrying login until the message appears or max iterations are reached

  • Click "Save" to apply the condition.

  

• Parameter - Choose "Parameter" when the condition depends on a value.

  • From the 1st dropdown, choose an existing parameter OR Click "Create to add a new parameter" :

    • Enter Name (e.g.,retry_count)

    • Enter Value (e.g., 0)

    • Select Type (String, Number, etc.)

    • Click Create

  • From the 2nd dropdown, select the comparison type:

    • equals

    • not equals

    • greater than

    • less than

    • contains

  • Enter the comparison value (e.g., 3).

  • Set Max iterations.

    • Example: To retry login for limited attempts:

      • While retry_count < 3 → condition is true

        • If retry_count ≥ 3 → condition becomes false

        • The system will retry the steps until the condition becomes false or max iterations are reached

  • Click "Save" to apply the condition.

  
• While (Loop Steps)

  • Add the required steps under While.

  • These steps execute repeatedly as long as the condition is true.

  
• End While

  • End While marks the end of the While loop.

  • It closes the loop block and completes the flow.

    • The loop stops when:

      • Condition becomes false

      • OR max iterations limit is reached

    • If needed, update or modify the description

    • Click "Save" after changing description

  
• Example Flow

  • While login is not successful:

    • Enter username and password

    • Click login

    • Wait for response

  • After End While:

    • If login is successful → go to dashboard

    • Else → show error and stop execution

  • Continue with remaining test steps
