1. Creating & Configuring Suites
- In the sidebar under the Suites section, click
+ New Suite. - Configure suite parameters:
- Name & Description: e.g.
Nightly Payment Gateway Smoke Suite. - Execution Mode:
- Sequential: Executes flows one by one in the specified pipeline sequence. Recommended when downstream flows depend on state created by upstream flows.
- Parallel: Executes independent flows concurrently to minimize pipeline execution times.
- Stop on Failure: If enabled, halts execution immediately upon the first flow failure.
- Name & Description: e.g.
2. Drag-and-Drop Pipeline Reordering
Quixa provides intuitive visual controls to reorder execution steps:- Suite Flow Reordering: Expand any Suite card in the sidebar to view the flow rows (
1, 2, 3...). Drag any flow row up or down; a blue visual indicator line projects the drop target position. - Direct Flow-into-Suite Dragging: Drag any flow directly from the Flows tree onto a Suite card or between existing suite steps to instantly insert it into the pipeline.
- Suite Card Reordering: Drag suite cards themselves to order high-priority regression suites at the top of your workspace.
3. Suite Execution Results & Analytics
ClickingRun Suite launches the execution pipeline and opens the Suite Results Viewer:
- Pass / Fail KPI Cards: Immediate summary of total flows, passed flows, failed flows, and total pipeline duration.
- Flow Timeline & Per-Flow Breakdown: Expand any flow in the suite to inspect its individual node traces, response status codes, and latency breakdowns.
- Exportable Audit Report: Export suite run artifacts as JSON or JUnit XML for integration with GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitLab CI.
