Description

The /dry command is used to create a test file and write to a specified file. This command won’t run steps it creates. It’s a dry run.

​
Usage

/dry <file>

​
Example usage

npx testdriverai@latest <filename.yaml>
> /dry click the 'log in' button

This command generates the steps to click the 'log in' button with an explanation and adds them to the current test file, without executing any command.

​
Behavior

  • TestDriver will create steps for the test file, writing them in the file.
  • TestDriver will also show the reasoning and test steps in the CLI:
thinking...

    To click the 'log in' button, we need to identify and
    click on the text "Log in" visible in the screenshot.
    Here's how to accomplish this:

    commands:
      - command: hover-text
        text: Log in
        description: log in button in the code editor
        action: click

    ### Explanation:

    1. Click the 'Log in' Button: We use hover-text to locate and click on the "Log in" text visible in the code editor. This ensures the button is activated.

​
Protips

  • Ensure you run the testdriverai command with a valid file path before using /dry.
  • Use descriptive filenames for your test files to make them easier to identify.
  • Combine /dry with /undo to write test files without executing them.

​
Notes

  • The /dry command is ideal for writing out a series of steps before executing.
