| Artifact | A file produced by a run, such as screenshots, videos, traces, logs, or reports. |
| Automation | A trigger that starts runs on a cron schedule or an external event, with its own site URL, groups, and configurations. |
| Cloud test session | The hardware-isolated sandbox allocated for each run. Prepared automatically — no infrastructure to install. |
| Credits | TestVibe's usage unit. AI tokens and run session time are metered in credits; see Settings → Billing and Settings → Credit Usage. |
| Feature | A Gherkin .feature file that describes behavior in user-readable scenarios. |
| Generation | The AI cloud agent that creates or updates feature files or Playwright test code. Metered in credits. |
| Group | A folder or collection used to organize related tests. |
| Journey | A user flow through your app, described by a feature and proven by its generated test. Load tests replay journeys in parallel. |
| Learned App Fact | Selector-free application behavior TestVibe's agents discover automatically while driving your app — control quirks, timing, DOM shape. Captured as tests generate and expire when the app changes. Reviewable (read-only aside from delete) in Settings → Notes. |
| Load test | A k6-based run that replays journeys under a load profile (virtual users, duration, ramp-up), dispatched to a cloud load fleet. |
| Member | A person who belongs to a workspace, with a role of Owner, Admin, Member, or Viewer. Managed in Settings → Members. |
| Note | Durable instructions you or the assistant write about your app — login quirks, navigation structure, domain vocabulary — injected into every generation. Editable in Settings → Notes. |
| Plugin | Packaged steps you can call from Gherkin after installing them from the Plugins section. |
| Project | An application under test, created with a name and the site URL(s) to test. All project content lives in TestVibe's cloud. |
| Run | One execution of selected tests against a site URL inside a cloud test session. |
| Scenario | One example of behavior in a feature file, written as steps such as Given, When, and Then. |
| Secret | An encrypted, write-only value in Settings → Variables & Secrets, referenced from Gherkin as {{secret:NAME}}. |
| Test | A runnable Playwright test or a TestVibe test item in the suite. |
| Test Suite | The organized tree of groups, features, and tests for a project. |
| Tunnel device | A machine inside your network running the tvtunnel agent so cloud test sessions can reach private apps. Managed in Settings → Tunnels. |
| Variable | A plain configuration value in Settings → Variables & Secrets, referenced from Gherkin as {{var:NAME}}. |
| Workspace | The container that owns projects, members, billing, credits, and storage. Every user gets a personal workspace and can create or join team workspaces; switch the active one from the header. Billing, plan, and credits belong to the workspace. |
