Using Functions

Functions created in a Workspace can be invoked from scripts in Browser Test checks and API Monitoring checks.

Browser Tests​

The Edit Test page for a Browser Test allows including Functions that can invoked during monitoring test execution.

The Include Functions section on the page allows for searching an existing Function or creating a new Function that can be included.

Selected Functions will be included inline before your Playwright script during the monitor's execution. Any such included functions can be invoked from your Playwright script.

Here is an example Function.

async function launchPage(browser) {    
    const page = await browser.newPage();
    await page.goto('https://www.playwright.dev');
    return await page.title();       
}

By including this Function in your Browser Test, the launchPage() method can be invoked from your Playwright script.

The Include Functions section on the page allows for searching an existing Function or creating a new Function that can be included.

Selected Functions will be included inline before your Before Request Script and After Request Script script during the monitor's execution. Any such included functions can be invoked from your scripts.

Following is an example usage.
