Using API NLP Test Steps
Let's say you want to automate the creation of a Salesforce Lead record. To create a lead record, navigate to the Leads tab, click New, and fill out the form with details such as the lead's name, company, contact information, and descriptions. After entering the necessary information, save the record. The lead will be available for future actions, such as follow-ups or conversion into an account, contact, or opportunity.
Guess what? With Testsigma, you can perform all these actions in a single API step using the following NLP:
NLP 1:
"Create record in Salesforce Object Form using Salesforce Connection connection and store the record id in variable test data"
This NLP creates a new record for the selected Salesforce object.
See the GIF below demonstrating how to use this NLP.
You can also select the Record Type when entering details in the API step. However, ensure you only enter details relevant to that specific Record Type, or the test case will fail.
NLP 2:
"Open the edit Salesforce Object form where record id is Record ID"
This NLP opens edit form of the selected Salesforce object using Record ID.
See the GIF below demonstrating how to use this NLP.
NLP 3:
"Delete record in Salesforce Object where record id is test data using Salesforce Connection connection"
This NLP deletes a record for the selected Salesforce object using Record ID.
See the GIF below demonstrating how to use this NLP.
NLP 4:
"Login to Salesforce using Salesforce Connection connection"
This NLP enables users to log in to Salesforce with a selected user connection.
See the GIF below demonstrating how to use this NLP.
NLP 5:
"Login to Salesforce Application application using Salesforce Connection connection"
This NLP allows users to log in directly to a specific Salesforce Application using a selected User Connection.
For example, select Sales from the dropdown to log in to Sales CRM.
See the GIF below demonstrating how to use this NLP.
NLP 6:
"Switch to Salesforce Application application"
This NLP lets users switch to a specific Salesforce Application. Choose the application from the available options in the dropdown.
