Chrome extension for test registration (stable version)

Valido Chrome extension We have released stable version of the Chrome extension, for the functional test registration directly from the browser.

Functional testing vs healt check

We have separated the tests into two categories: Health check and Functional.

  • Health check is a simple test to validate the status of a single page test, from different points of view like availability, visual and status of third party services / APIs and static files.
  • Functional test is a multi-step test can be adopted to validate also the functional aspects of the ecommerce (navigation, search, registration, checkout, ...), in addition to availability, visual and third party services.
