1. Use the auto-complete feature to create your test cases—either by double-clicking tasks or dragging and dropping them from the task panel into the editor. Alternatively, you can type the test steps manually using the tasks.
   
   
   

2. After adding the required task, provide the relevant parameters for them. The parameters can contain the following:
• Elements: Locators for the elements that are interacted with can be set in two ways. The first method is to manually hard-code the locators. To do that, select the desired locator type, and the editor automatically fills in the correct format for that type. After inspecting the mobile application with the mobile inspector, you can copy the locator values.
  
  For example, to use the locator inside theTap task, from the dropdown, choose classname as the type of locator. Insert the class value with the format that auto-filled: tap("classname:XCUIElementTypeCell")
  
  Alternatively, testers can leverage the auto-complete feature by typing "ui." to access the list of created elements.
  
  Additionally, the Refer Elements option allows users to copy, edit, and create new elements. To copy or edit existing elements, select the page name and hover over the copy or edit icons for the required element. To create new elements, click +Add.
  
  
• Variables: To access the variables created, start typing in the format "$<variable>". This way, you can view the list of all global and environment variables in addition to the system variables that are present by default.
  
  
  

• Functions: The format of a function in a parameter should follow the format:
  
  
  
  <module_linkname>.<function_linkname>(<parameters>).
  
  
  
  where,
  
  <module_linkname> is the link name of the module under which the function is placed;
  
  <function_linkname> is the link name of the function to be invoked;
  
  <parameters> is the input values to be passed, if any.
  

  Notes
  

  • Only functions that return a value can be used as parameters.
    
  • Function arguments aren't mandatory. You can also add them later by editing the test case details of that function. Learn more
    

• Files: Files are supported only for selected tasks. To access saved files, type in the format "files.<filename>".

3. Click Save to save all changes or edits to the test case.

2.2.  Builder mode  

To start writing in Builder mode, follow the steps below:

1. Click Builder Mode.
   
   
   

2. Drag and drop the required tasks from the task panel on the left to the editor.
3. After adding the task, you need to provide the relevant parameters. Click the argument placeholder on the right. The set expression pop-up contains an input field and provides the option to select the required elements, variables, files, or functions. The parameters can contain:
   
• Elements: Parameters for the interacted-with elements are defined by selecting locators directly from the element option. Simply choose the element name from the dropdown menu, and the locator automatically populates the input field in the format: "ui.ZWatch.Add_Cart".
  
  
  
  Alternatively, parameters can be defined manually by specifying the locators. Use the mobile inspector to inspect the application and retrieve the locator values. Paste the copied values into the appropriate fields, ensuring they adhere to the correct format for the selected locator type. For example, if the locator type is "class name", the format followed inside a task like tap would appear as: "classname:XCUIElementTypeCell".
  
  Additionally, the Refer Elements option allows users to copy, edit, and create new elements. To copy or edit existing elements, select the webpage or application page name, and hover over the copy or edit icons for the required element. To create new elements, click +Add.
  
  
  
  
• Variables: The Variables section includes a list of all global and environment variables, in addition to system variables that are present by default. Select the required variable or type in the format "$<variable>" inside the input field.
  
• Functions: Function can only be used as a parameter by using the call function task inside the required task. Call function is a dropdown in the case of Builder mode. Select the desired function from the saved list of functions.
  
• Files: Uploaded files are accessible from the Files section. Select the required file from the saved list of files.

After applying the required parameters, click Done. To save the changes or edits to the test case, click Save.
