Code Editor Configurations

SimplifyQA's Code Editor allows users to primarily write custom methods that align with their application's specific behaviors—be it handling complex UI logic or processing external data. Additionally, with built-in Code Editor Configurations, users can seamlessly integrate their preferred code repositories, enabling a smooth development workflow while working on test scripts, automation logic, or other project-related code—directly within SimplifyQA.

How to Configure a Code Editor in SimplifyQA?

Project Level Configuration

Project-level configuration allows more control over who can access and use the Code Editor within a specific project. This ensures that only relevant team members—such as automation engineers or developers—can write or manage custom methods for that project, without impacting other projects or requiring global changes.

  1. Navigate to Admin Section → Project Settings → Code Editor Configurations.

  1. Select the preferred platform from the dropdown menu. Common platforms that may be supported include:

    • Gitlab

    • Github

    • Bitbucket

  2. Enter the Platform URL (e.g., the platform URL or path to link their repository with SimplifyQA.).

  1. Save the configurations.

  1. The code repository will now be linked to the selected project in SimplifyQA.

Refer Code Editor to learn how to write custom methods and manage the script in repository.

Customer Level Configuration

At the Customer Level, platform-wide configurations can be made for all users under an organisation by defining platform details and URLs in the admin section.

  • From profile, click Switch to Admin

  • Select Layout & Custom Fields from the left panel

  • Click the Code Editor card and provide the Platform and URL details

Benefits of Repository Configuration with Code Editor

  1. Centralised Access: Work on your test automation scripts from anywhere by accessing a centralised repository linked directly within SimplifyQA.

  2. Collaboration Made Easy: Multiple team members can contribute, review, and update scripts without code duplication or conflicts—streamlining development and testing workflows.
