Run and Monitor RPA Process Test Plans

Learning Objectives

After completing this unit, you’ll be able to:

  • Select and execute test plans.
  • Review test run results.
  • Monitor ongoing test runs.

In the last unit, you learned to create a test plan in MuleSoft RPA Manager. In this unit, you learn to execute test plans and review the results.

Execute a Test Plan

It’s common to have multiple test plans for an RPA process to simulate real-world scenarios that the bot may encounter. Each test plan is individually configured.

RPA process test plan and RPA bot selection dialog box.

After you select your test configuration to deploy, you click Execute. All selected test plans run simultaneously. You monitor their progress in real time, and results show on the Test Results page in the Project view.

Review Test Results

The Test Results page in the Project view shows if a test was triggered. It also shows whether the process ran successfully. If the trigger fails, or if the process itself fails, analyze the results and fix accordingly. It’s common to push an RPA process back to the Build phase to address issues found during tests.Test Results page in Project view showing two test plan configurations. One test configuration ran successfully.

To view details of the test results, click the count link in the success, failure, or sum columns. When you click this link, the following Process Run Results view appears.

If the test run fails, you can download an analysis package. You can then share this with team members building the RPA process to help them locate the cause of the failure.

Tip: If you cannot see your test results, click Update to manually refresh the Test Results page.

Monitor RPA Process Runs

The Robot State and Operations menu under the Process Monitoring module allows you to monitor the process execution on a remote machine in real time. The following information is shown for every bot.
