Menditect Test Automation (MTA)
Menditect Test Automation (MTA) is a specialized Mendix application developed and maintained by Menditect for automated testing of other Mendix apps.
Key Capabilities
- Model-Driven Test Design: MTA leverages metadata from your Mendix model (such as microflows and entities) to design test cases.
- Flexible Hosting: MTA can be hosted by Menditect in the Mendix Cloud, or self-hosted by the customer (either in a private cloud or on-premise).
- Local Execution: Test scripts are designed and managed inside MTA but executed directly on an instance of your target Mendix application.
- Results & Analytics: Test results can be viewed directly within MTA or exported to external BI tools via the MTA API.
How to Use This Reference Guide
This reference guide describes each element in the MTA user interface. Pages are organized to match the elements found in the MTA application.
tip
Look for the button next to elements in the MTA interface to navigate directly to their corresponding documentation page.
Page Structure
Each reference page is structured into four standard sections:
- Definition: A description of the element, its purpose, and how it fits into the testing workflow.
- Properties: A list of the element's database attributes as they appear in the MTA user interface.
- Business Rules: Operational rules and constraints enforced by MTA for this element (excluding basic validations).
- Actions: Step-by-step instructions on what you can perform with this element.
note
Actions are described abstractly to keep documentation stable. Buttons and controls may sometimes reside in menus or overflow dropdowns depending on your screen size.
