Task Configuration

Task configuration is used to configure or orchestrate specific execution actions. It flexibly supports three core task types, comprehensively covering testing scenario requirements.

Task Types

AngusTester provides the following three core task types to meet different testing needs:

Task Type	Applicable Scenarios	Script Types
Test Orchestration (pipelines)	Complex business process testing	TEST_PERFORMANCE, TEST_FUNCTIONALITY, TEST_STABILITY, TEST_CUSTOMIZATION
Mock Data (mockData)	Test data generation	MOCK_DATA
Mock APIs (mockApis)	API simulation services	MOCK_APIS

Important Note

AngusTester automatically selects the task type based on the type field in the script. When a script contains multiple task configurations, ensure the executed task type matches the script type.

Task Field Descriptions

Field Name	Type	Required	Description
arguments	object	No	Plugin-specific configuration Extended parameters for different protocols View details
pipelines	object	No	Test process orchestration Build multi-step testing scenarios (see test orchestration documentation) View details
mockData	object	No	Data generation configuration Custom test data generation (see mock data documentation) View details
mockApis	object	No	API simulation configuration Virtual API service setup (see mock APIs documentation) View details

Example of Configuring a Test Task

type: TEST_PERFORMANCE              # Test type  
plugin: Http                        # Plugin  
task:                               # Task  
  pipelines:  
  - target: HTTP  
    request:  
      method: GET
