Plugins
Plugins add steps you can call from Gherkin. Install one, then use its keywords in any feature — assert with an LLM, seed a database, file a Jira issue when a test fails, post results to Slack, or compare visual snapshots. Plugins live in the Plugins section of the navigation rail.
This area was previously documented as "Skills" — same surface, current product name is Plugins. Existing links keep working.
What You Can Do
| Task | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Browse the catalog | Search and filter by category — Assistant & models, Integrations, Reporting, Data & Utilities. |
| Install a plugin | Make its steps available to every feature in the project. An install persists — it stays installed across reloads and for every teammate on the project until someone removes it. |
| Configure secrets and variables | Provide API keys or service URLs a plugin needs, without hard-coding them in test files. |
| Publish a plugin | Share your own packaged steps from the upload action in the rail. |
The Catalog
The catalog shows customer-facing plugins. Built-in identity and inbox helpers are not installable catalog entries. Framework helpers can be enabled automatically by the project's framework settings. Check a plugin's detail page for the steps actually available.
| Plugin | Category | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| OpenAI | Assistant & models | Call GPT models from Gherkin — summarize, classify, and make natural-language assertions. |
| Anthropic Claude | Assistant & models | LLM-powered checks with Claude — assert intent, grade output quality, and explain failures in plain English. |
| TestVibe Assistant | Assistant & models | Assistant visual comparison — judges a live screenshot against an Asset Library baseline using your project's model. See Visual comparison plugins below. |
| Visual Regression | Reporting | Pixel-diffs screenshots across runs against a baseline stored in your Asset Library, and flags unexpected visual changes. See Visual comparison plugins below. |
| GitHub | Integrations | Open issues, comment on pull requests, and attach run artifacts directly from your steps. |
| Jira | Integrations | Create and transition Jira issues when tests fail, with run links and screenshots attached. |
| Slack | Integrations | Notify a Slack channel with run results, pass rates, and links to failing tests. |
| Faker | Data & Utilities | Generate realistic, randomized test data — names, emails, addresses — inside your steps. |
| Wisej.NET | Data & Utilities | Drive Wisej.NET framework controls (combo boxes, trees, data grids, date pickers, ribbon buttons) reliably. |
| PostgreSQL | Data & Utilities | Listed in the catalog as a database helper. Database-specific steps for seeding and asserting state currently target SQL Server rather than PostgreSQL — check the plugin's detail page for what's actually wired up before relying on it. |
The catalog also contains entries whose runtime helpers are not implemented, including PostgreSQL, Sentry, REST Client, and Mattermost. Their presence is not a guarantee of executable steps. Automatic Mattermost notifications are disabled under the current email-only policy.
