runFlow

If you'd like to avoid duplication of code or otherwise modularize your Flow files, you can use the runFlow command to run commands from another file.

runFlow

Runs a flow from a specified file:

- runFlow: anotherFlow.yaml

Example

Let's say you have a login sequence that you'd like to reuse across multiple flows. You can write the login commands in a separate file and run those steps from another Flow:

Login.yaml

appId: com.example.app
---
- launchApp
- tapOn: Username
- inputText: Test User
- tapOn: Password
- inputText: Test Password
- tapOn: Login

Profile.yaml

appId: com.example.app
---
- runFlow: Login.yaml # <-- Run commands from "Login.yaml"
- tapOn: Profile
- assertVisible: "Name: Test User"

Settings.yaml

appId: com.example.app
---
- runFlow: Login.yaml # <-- Run commands from "Login.yaml"
- tapOn: Settings
- assertVisible: "Switch to dark mode"

Arguments

runFlow command can accepts arguments that will be passed to subflow, the same way as with -e or env block in the flow itself (see Parameters & Constants):

- runFlow: 
    file: anotherFlow.yaml
    env:
      MY_PARAMETER="123"

Inline flows

If you would like to use runFlow without extracting the commands into a separate flow file, you can run your commands inline like this:

- runFlow:
    env:
      INNER_ENV: Inner Parameter
    commands:
      - inputText: ${INNER_ENV}
