Quick Start Guide

This guide will get you up and running with ConductorQA in just a few minutes. By the end, you’ll have created your first project, test suite, and test case, and understand the basic workflow.

Step 1: Create Your Account

1. Visit app.conductorqa.com
2. Sign up with your email address
3. Verify your email (check your inbox)
4. Complete your profile setup

Step 2: Create Your First Project

Once logged in, you’ll see the dashboard. Let’s create your first project:

1. Click “Create Project” or the ”+” button
2. Enter a project name (e.g., “My Web App Tests”)
3. Add a description (optional)
4. Click “Create Project”

🎉 You’ve created your first project! Projects help organize your testing efforts by application, feature, or team.

Step 3: Set Up Your First Test Suite

Test suites group related test cases together. Let’s create one:

1. Inside your project, click “Create Test Suite”
2. Name it “Login Flow Tests”
3. Add a description: “Tests for user authentication”
4. Click “Create Suite”

Step 4: Add Test Cases

Now let’s add some test cases to your suite:

1. Click “Add Test Case” in your test suite
2. Create your first test case:
   • Title: “User can login with valid credentials”
   • Description: “Verify successful login with correct email/password”
   • Expected Result: “User redirected to dashboard”
3. Add a second test case:
   • Title: “Invalid password shows error message”
   • Description: “Verify error handling for incorrect password”
   • Expected Result: “Error message displayed, user remains on login page”

Step 5: Execute Your First Test Run

Ready to run your tests? Here’s how:

1. Click “Execute Suite” in your test suite
2. Choose your execution environment (e.g., “Staging”)
3. Assign the execution to yourself
4. Click “Start Execution”

You’ll see the real-time execution dashboard where you can:

• Mark tests as Pass, Fail, or Skip
• Add notes and screenshots
• Track execution progress
• View detailed results

Step 6: View Results and Reports

After completing your test execution:

1. Navigate to “Reports” in the main menu
2. View your execution summary:
   • Pass/fail rates
   • Execution duration
   • Test case details
   • Historical trends

Next Steps: API Integration

Get Your API Key

1. Go to Settings > API Keys
2. Click “Generate New Key”
3. Copy and securely store your API key
