Testing a package or running a test set in Test Manager

先决条件

1. Use the latest Test Manager version (Test Manager 2.2510 or higher for Automation Suite delivery or Test Manager 25.10 or higher for standalone installation).

2. If you already have a test set running in Orchestrator, import the test set to Test Manager. For more information, refer to Test Manager - Importing Orchestrator test sets. Get the testset-key after import.

3. Create a project in Test Manager and get the project-key. Get the project-key from Test Manager > Dashboard tab > Projects > All projects.

4. Create a package or a test set with automated test cases. Get the testset-key from Test Manager > Test Sets tab > Key column.

5. Get the ClientId and ClientSecret. For more information on how to get the ClientID and ClientSecret, refer to the Registering an external application section of the CI/CD integrations - Executing UiPath CLI tasks topic.

6. Run the uipcli.dll file for Windows/Linux/macOS.

7. Add the required Test Manager API access application scopes. For more information on the Test Manager scopes, refer to the CI/CD integrations - Executing UiPath CLI tasks topic.

Using Test Manager with CLI

To test a package using Test Manager, take the following steps: Run the test task, using uipcli test. You can notice a list of available sub-tasks. Specify the required parameters and run the run sub-task.

To use Test Manager instead of Orchestrator testing, specify the --projectKey parameter in the test run command. The CLI will automatically route your tests through Test Manager.

备注：

When using external application authentication without specifying the --applicationScope parameter, the CLI automatically applies these default Test Manager scopes:

TM.Projects TM.TestSets TM.TestExecutions

In addition to default OR scopes:

OR.Assets OR.BackgroundTasks OR.Execution OR.Folders OR.Robots.Read OR.Machines.Read OR.Jobs OR.TestSets OR.TestSetExecutions OR.Monitoring OR.Settings.Read

用法示例

Execute an existing test set in Test Manager:

# Windowsuipcli test run "https://cloud.uipath.com/" "TenantName" `  --projectKey "MyTestProject" `  --testsetkey "MyTestSet" `  -A "organizationName" `  -I "becc663c-8f1e-409a-a75f-c00330d80bc8" `  -S "********" `  --applicationScope "OR.Folders OR.Execution TM.Projects TM.TestSets TM.TestExecutions" `  -o "FolderName" `  --out "junit" `  --result_path "C:\TestResults"  --author ExampleAuthor# Linux/macOSuipcli test run "https://cloud.uipath.com/" "TenantName" \  --projectKey "MyTestProject" \  --testsetkey "MyTestSet" \  -A "organizationName" \  -I "becc663c-8f1e-409a-a75f-c00330d80bc8" \  -S "********" \  --applicationScope "OR.Folders OR.Execution TM.Projects TM.TestSets TM.TestExecutions" \  -o "FolderName" \  --out "junit" \  --result_path "./test-results"  --author ExampleAuthor

Create and execute a transient test set from a project:

Transient test sets are temporary test sets created on-the-fly from your project path.

uipcli test run "https://cloud.uipath.com/" "TenantName" \  --projectKey "MyTestProject" \  -P "./MyTestProject/project.json" \  -e "TestEnvironment" \  -A "organizationName" \  -I "becc663c-8f1e-409a-a75f-c00330d80bc8" \  -S "********" \  --applicationScope "OR.Folders OR.Execution TM.Projects TM.TestSets TM.TestExecutions" \  -o "FolderName" \  --out "uipath" \  --result_path "./test-results"

Execute tests with parameter overrides:

uipcli test run "https://cloud.uipath.com/" "TenantName" \  --projectKey "MyTestProject" \  --testsetkey "MyTestSet" \  -i "./test-parameters.json" \  -A "organizationName" \  -I "becc663c-8f1e-409a-a75f-c00330d80bc8" \  -S "********" \  --applicationScope "OR.Folders OR.Execution TM.Projects TM.TestSets TM.TestExecutions" \  -o "FolderName" \  --out "junit" \  --result_path "./test-results"

Execute tests with robot logs attachment:

uipcli test run "https://cloud.uipath.com/" "TenantName" \  --projectKey "MyTestProject" \  --testsetkey "MyTestSet" \  --attachRobotLogs true \  -A "organizationName" \  -I "becc663c-8f1e-409a-a75f-c00330d80bc8" \  -S "********" \  --applicationScope "OR.Folders OR.Execution TM.Projects TM.TestSets TM.TestExecutions" \  -o "FolderName" \  --out "junit" \  --result_path "./test-results"

Report types

Test Manager supports two output formats:

格式	描述	用例
junit	JUnit XML format	CI/CD integration (Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions)
uipath	UiPath native format	Detailed execution reports with Test Manager-specific data

Migration from Orchestrator testing

Before (Orchestrator testing):

uipcli test run "https://cloud.uipath.com/" "TenantName" \  -s "MyTestSet" \  -u "username" \  -p "password" \  -o "FolderName" \  -P "./project.json"

After (Test Manager):

uipcli test run "https://cloud.uipath.com/" "TenantName" \  --projectKey "MyTestProject" \  --testsetkey "MyTestSet" \  -A "organizationName" \  -I "becc663c-8f1e-409a-a75f-c00330d80bc8" \  -S "********" \  --applicationScope "OR.Folders OR.Execution TM.Projects TM.TestSets TM.TestExecutions" \  -o "FolderName" \  --out "junit" \  --result_path "./results"

Key differences:

1. Add --projectKey parameter to enable Test Manager
2. Use --testsetkey instead of -s for test set identification
3. Test Manager requires OAuth authentication (application credentials)
4. Specify output format with --out and destination with --result_path

最佳实践

Test Manager setup:

• Create dedicated Test Manager projects for different applications or teams
• Use meaningful project keys and test set keys for easy identification
• Organize test sets by purpose (regression, smoke, integration, etc.)

Parameter management:

• Use parameter files (-i) for environment-specific configurations
• Store sensitive parameters in CI/CD secrets, not in parameter files
• Document required parameters in your test set descriptions

Retry logic:

• Use --retryCount for flaky tests that may fail intermittently
• Set appropriate --timeout values based on test duration
• Monitor retry patterns to identify and fix unstable tests

Reporting:

• Use junit format for CI/CD pipeline integration
• Use uipath format for detailed analysis in Test Manager
• Enable --attachRobotLogs for debugging test failures

CI/CD integration:

• Configure Test Manager authentication using secure environment variables
• Set up automated test execution on code commits or pull requests
• Archive test reports as build artifacts for historical tracking
