Use case: Marketplaces

End-to-end testing for marketplaces

A marketplace has two sides. Listings, messaging, payouts and disputes each involve a buyer, a seller or both.

Flows to cover first in marketplaces: listings, messaging, payouts, disputes. Each flow becomes a spec: a YAML file with plain-English steps that runs locally or in CI.

Each side gets its own specs with its own test credentials in env.
Tags split the suite, so the smoke set runs on every pull request and the full set runs less often.
A failed payout test gets a triage card with a proposed classification: app bug, test issue or environment.

Capabilities used

Tests in plain English

A test is a list of steps in plain English in a YAML file; the platform resolves each step against the live page at run time.

Triages failures

A failed test gets a triage card with the failing step, the page state, the diff from the last passing run and a classification: app bug, test issue, environment.

Parallel hosted runs

Runs tests in parallel on hosted browsers in the selected region with traces kept for the plan's retention window.

Runs in CI

One CLI command runs a suite in CI and reports a pass, fail or healed status per test as a check on the pull request.

Questions

Can one test log in as both buyer and seller?

A test has one env map, so it can hold both sets of credentials. Most teams keep one side per test to keep failures easy to read.

How do I run only the smoke tests?

Tag them and run npx aitp run --tag smoke.
