With plans, you can harness the power of scheduled executions and testing on deployment. This article explains how to add tests to a plan.

Edit plans in the mabl MCP

You can also add or remove tests from plans and manage other plan settings from the mabl cloud MCP. See the tool reference for more details.

How to add one or more tests to a single plan

A single plan can include browser, mobile, API, and performance tests, with each test type running against its own target. To set up plans for multiple test types, add the target URLs and build files as targets for the same application and environment, and associate the plan with that environment and application.

If you want to add tests to a specific stage or in a specific sequence, add tests on the edit plan page:

  1. Click on the Plans tab in the left-hand navigation.
  2. Click on the plan that you want to add tests to.
  3. Click on the edit pencil on the plan details page.
  4. In the Tests section, select the tests that you want to add. Click on the grip dots to place tests in a specific sequence or move them to a different plan stage.
  5. Click Save to confirm your changes.
