SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides essential tools and abstractions to streamline the process of writing end-to-end tests for Umbraco backoffice applications, reducing boilerplate code and improving test reliability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • API Helpers: Interact with the Umbraco Management API for fast test setup and teardown (e.g., creating content, document types).
  • UI Helpers: Automate interactions with the Umbraco backoffice UI (e.g., navigation, clicking elements, setting editor values).
  • Constants: Access predefined constants for Umbraco sections, actions, and buttons, ensuring consistency.
  • Use Case: You need to write an E2E test to verify that a new content item can be created, populated with data, and published. This Skill provides the umbracoApi to create the content type and the umbracoUi to interact with the editor and publish the content.

Quick Start

Use the umbracoApi to create a new document type named 'MyTestDocType'.
