Introduction to Testing Patterns

The guides in this section move beyond the configuration of individual nodes and focus on the bigger picture: how to combine nodes to build robust, maintainable, and realistic test flows.

Mastering these patterns will allow you to simulate complex user journeys, manage test data effectively, and create adaptive tests that can handle a variety of real-world scenarios.

What You’ll Learn

• Structuring Your Tests: Learn the best practices for organizing your test cases into a scalable and maintainable project using reusable modules.
• Managing Data & Context: A deep dive into the lifecycle of test data—how to generate it, pass it between steps, and use it to drive your tests.
• Conditional Logic & Error Handling: Build intelligent tests that can react to different API responses, validate both success and error paths, and make decisions on the fly.
• Testing Asynchronous Flows: A step-by-step guide for a common challenge: testing APIs that perform background work.
