How does this affect me?
The testing framework for Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a structured approach to automate the process of testing desktop flows to ensure they function as intended. This feature introduces a "Testing" module that includes two new actions for testing purposes: "Assert" and "Test a desktop flow."

This feature enhances test case development by:
  • Enabling you to create, edit, list and delete test cases associated with a desktop flow
  • Adding support for Power Automate for desktop actions to help with testing
  • Allowing run and debug tests from Power Automate for desktop
In addition, this feature improves orchestration and pipeline integration, adding:
  • Support for running as part of an automated pipeline
  • Export/Import tests along with a desktop flow
What action do I need to take?
This message is for awareness and no action is required.
