Tests are made from a series of steps. If one step fails in a test, the entire test fails. This means that every step must be successful for the test to be a success.

How to add a step to a test

You can create a step by clicking the + Add Step box at the bottom of the Visual editor.

Note: In the visual editor steps will be color-coded to follow their category.

Creating a group of steps

To simplify the organization of tests, you may want to group steps. When you click the Create Group icon, a dialog will open for you to name your group.

RapidAPI supports using multiple groups and nested groups within a single test. Additionally, you can rename, reorder, and delete groups after creation.
