Auto-healing for AI-Generated Test Cases

If you generate test cases using Atto and automate them without learning the live app, Atto creates elements with dummy locators. With the Gen AI auto-healing feature enabled, these dummy locators are automatically detected and updated during execution. This article discusses how auto-healing identifies and updates element locators while executing test cases generated by the Generator Agent.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that:

1. You have enabled the Generative AI feature. If you don’t have access to this feature, please contact Support via chat for assistance.
2. You have referred to the documentation on enabling the auto-healing feature.
3. You have referred to the documentation on generating test cases using Atto.

Steps to Execute the Generated Test Cases

1. Once the test case has been added to the selected scenario, click Run.
2. On the Ad-Hoc Run overlay, configure the required options and click Run Now.
3. During execution, Testsigma’s auto-healing detects that the Email address or phone number element uses a dummy locator and automatically heals it by identifying the correct element.
4. When Gen AI Auto-Healing is enabled, Testsigma updates the locator to //input[@id='email'] and continues the execution seamlessly.

Auto-Healing Insights

Once the test execution is complete, please refer to the documentation on Auto-Healing Insights to view the auto-healing results and learn how to update the element locator.
