Using Auto-Healing in Copilot Test Execution

With Auto-Healing enabled, you can execute test cases directly in Copilot to validate element locators in real time. This helps ensure that any changes in the application’s UI are automatically detected and corrected during execution. This article discusses how auto-healing identifies and updates element locators while executing test cases in the Copilot.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that:

1. You have referred to the documentation on enabling the auto-healing feature.
2. You have referred to the documentation on installing the Testsigma Terminal.
3. You have referred to the documentation on managing test cases.

Use Case for Auto-Healing

Let’s say we are testing a login page for https://www.facebook.com/.

Here are the steps to produce:

• Navigate to https://www.facebook.com/.
• Enter demo@example.com in the Email address or phone number field.
• Enter demopassword in the Password Input field.
• Click on Log in Button.

1. Once you have created the test steps, click Copilot.
2. On the Copilot overlay, configure the required options and click Launch.
3. Consider that the XPATH for the element Email address or phone number on step 2 changed.

4. When the test case is executed in the Copilot with the Gen AI auto-healing feature enabled, Testsigma automatically identifies the updated XPath and successfully locates the element.
