IOTA Feature Tourtorial

Let's have a closer look at IOTA's usage and features.

You can try most of the steps in the tourtorial yourself by cloning this repository locally, and navigating to the examples/feature-tour directory. Note that for some parts, valid Saucelabs credentials are needed.

Basic knowledge of selenium and page objects is helpful, but not required.

Here's what we cover in the tourtorial so far:

• Running scenarios
  • dry run: manual test instructions, for free
  • in Chrome
  • on other platforms, browsers and Selenium grids
• Queues and concurrency
  • configsets and suites
  • Running queued scenarios with concurrency
• Handling 'flaky tests'
  • Retry for individual scenario steps
