Create Your First User Flow Test

Create a test specification file​

Create a new file inside specs folder. For this demo, this file will be called, cdc-navigation.spec. Open the file in an editor and start creating your first test case.

In the first step, we will just open cdc.gov website and check if text “About CDC” exists.

# Navigation User Journey Test

You may optionally add any notes in Markdown format

## Open CDC.gov website and check for text "About CDC" exists

* Goto "https://www.cdc.gov"
* Check text "About CDC" exists

That’s it! Go ahead and run tests now. If everything is setup properly, you should see test executed successfully.

Run tests​

# Run tests
npm test

You should see the following output:

> test
> gauge run specs/

# Navigation User Journey Test
  ## Open CDC.gov website and check for text "About CDC" exists  ✔ ✔
