Understanding the 'My Profile' Section

The My Profile section in SimplifyQA acts as a centralized hub for managing your account settings, preferences, integrations, and security.

This area is accessible from the user menu and is divided into three key categories:

• Switch to Admin

• Manage Account

• Settings.

1. Switch to Admin

If your user role has been granted the appropriate privileges, you will see the "Switch to Admin" option. This allows you to enter the admin mode and access organization-wide configurations and controls. This feature is typically used by project owners to manage user roles, privileges, and other administrative tasks.

2. Manage Account

This section focuses on user-specific settings and includes the following subsections:

• My Profile: Update your personal details such as name, email, and contact information. Keeping this information current helps ensure better collaboration and notifications.

• Change Password: Use this option to change your current password securely. It's a good practice to update your password periodically for security.

• Project Management: Configure and manage third-party integrations (e.g., JIRA, Jenkins, Git) that are tied to your projects. This enables smooth CI/CD and issue-tracking workflows.

• Security:

  • API Token Generation: Create or regenerate API tokens for accessing SimplifyQA APIs securely.

  • Machine Registration Token: Generate tokens for registering agents or machines.

  • Two-Way Verification: Add an extra layer of security to your account by setting up 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication).

• File Repository: Access and manage files uploaded or stored within your account for use in tests and other operations. The File Repository in SimplifyQA serves as a centralized hub to upload, store, manage, and reuse files across projects and test cases. It supports various file types such as .csv, .xls, .pdf, .txt, and images, making it ideal for handling test data, reference documents, and upload/download validations. Files stored in the repository can be directly linked to test steps, enabling seamless integration into both manual and automated test scenarios. With role-based access control, only authorized users can manage or reference files, ensuring security and relevance across teams.

• Themes: Personalise your SimplifyQA experience by selecting a preferred theme or layout.

3. Settings

The Settings tab is geared towards configuring and customizing your working environment in SimplifyQA. Here's a breakdown:

• Configuration:

  • Action List: Customize or extend the list of predefined actions available in the test builder.

  • Object Template: Set default templates for identifying and working with objects.

  • Registration Details: Manage and update registration details.

  • Execution Configuration: Set defaults for test execution behavior including retry logic, timeouts, browser preferences, etc.

• Custom JAR: Upload or manage custom JAR files that contain reusable methods, integrations, or utilities you want to use in your test cases.

• Downloads: From here, you can download essential tools such as:

  • SimplifyQA Agent

  • Code Editor

• iOS Settings: Configure device settings and profiles required for testing on iOS platforms.

4. Log Out

Clicking Log Out securely ends your SimplifyQA session, ensuring your data and workspace remain safe.

The My Profile section empowers users with full control over their account, security, preferences, and connected tools. Whether you're updating personal info, managing integrations, or downloading tools, this area offers everything you need to configure SimplifyQA to match your workflow.
