Manually add new test cases to your TestSprite test plan file. TestSprite will generate executable test code for these new cases.
Useful for importing tests from other sources or creating custom scenarios.
1

Open the TestSprite test plan file

Open the TestSprite test plan file (e.g.testsprite_frontend_test_plan.json).
plan
2

Add new test cases

Append new test cases at the end, following the same format as the existing ones. If you have test cases from another tool or platform, paste them in and make sure they follow the same style.
You can also use AI IDEs like Cursor or Trae to help reformat them to match TestSprite’s standard.

TestSprite generates test code

TestSprite will run the generate_code_execute tool again, generate test code for your new cases, and add them to your project and your TestSprite account.
