Running your Test Suite

Using CLI

In order to execute a test suite, you'll need to specify the test suite name in your CLI command like this:

--suite "Tutorial Demo"

Read more about running CLI here.

Using Scheduler

You can run your suite from Testim scheduler.
Read here to see how.

Note:

If you use parallel in your command, the order of the run is no longer guaranteed.
