What is a Conditional Step?
A Conditional Step (IF) evaluates a condition during a Test Run and determines the next action based on the result.
Instead of always executing steps sequentially, a Conditional Step allows your Test Case to react dynamically by stopping the run or jumping to another step.
When to use it
Execute steps only when a specific condition is true.
End the Test Run immediately when a critical condition is not met.
Jump over steps and continue later in the Test Case when a condition is met.
How to add a Conditional Step
Open your Test Case.
Click Add New Step.
In Step type, select Conditional Step (IF).
Configure the Step
Condition: Define what should be evaluated
Conditions can check the presence, visibility, state, or value of elements, and can also use variables.
Examples:
Cookies banner appears
Login button exists
Submit button is disabled
Error message is visible
Page URL contains
/dashboardText equals “Welcome back”
Displayed username matches
[USERNAME]
When the condition is met, the Conditional Step can:
Stop : End the current Test Run immediately.
Go to step : Jump forward to another step in the same Test Case.
This option is available only if there are steps present after the Conditional Step.
Choose the target step you want to continue from.
When the jump happens, all steps between the Conditional Step and the target step are not executed and marked with a Skipped status.
If the condition is not met, the Test Case continues with the next step as usual.
