Creating Values

Store and manage dynamic values for use throughout your tests.

Last updated 6 days ago

DoesQA allows you to pass data between steps, reuse results, and create flexible, data-driven tests. You can create and update values at various points during a test, depending on how and when the data is available.

Ways to Create Values

Values can be created or updated in several ways:

Test Level

Set values when configuring a test. These values are accessible across the entire test and are useful for static inputs like environment settings, usernames, or flags.

Store Element Nodes

Use any of the following nodes to extract and store data from the page during test execution:

  • Store Element Text – Stores the visible text of an element

  • Store Element HTML – Stores the full HTML content of an element

  • Store Element Value – Stores the value property of an input element

  • Store Element Attribute – Stores a specific attribute from an element (e.g. href, src, data-*)

  • Store Element Count – Stores the number of elements matching a selector

These nodes are useful for capturing dynamic content such as order numbers, field values, attributes, or counting repeated elements like product tiles or list items.

Value Store

Use the Value Store to manually define or update values.

Supported data types:

  • Strings – "Hello, world!"

  • Numbers – 42, 3.14

  • Booleans – true, false

  • Objects – { "id": 123, "name": "Sample" }

Webhook Trigger

You can start a test run via a webhook and pass in values as part of the request body. These values can either:

  • Create new values for use during the test

  • Overwrite existing values defined at the test level

This is useful when starting tests from external systems like CI/CD pipelines, internal tools, or backend workflows.
