​
Your first test

You don’t record or write a browser test in TestBrick — you describe it. Bricklayer opens your app in a real browser, does what you asked, and turns it into a test you can run any time.

​
Steps

1

Create a UI test

In a folder, click Add Test File, pick UI Test and give it a name like “Add to cart”.
2

Describe the flow

The empty test opens with Bricklayer. Write what to test, the way you’d brief a teammate:
Describing a test to BricklayerThe address above the box is where the test starts. Change it if the flow starts on another page.
3

Click Build it and watch

A live browser opens. Each step Bricklayer takes appears in the chat on the right, with a picture of the page.Bricklayer building a testYou can type in the chat at any time — Bricklayer reads your message before its next move. If it gets stuck, it tells you what’s confusing it and asks.
4

Confirm the checks

When it’s done, Bricklayer shows how it will prove the flow still works on every future run — for example “the flow ends on /cart.html” and “the page shows Sauce Labs Backpack”. Untick any check you don’t want, then click Save & verify my test.
5

Watch the first replay

TestBrick replays the saved test once, straight away, to make sure it works on its own. When it’s green, your test is ready.The first replay
