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.
