One Test Plan, Every Environment
The same plan, run against prod, staging, UAT, or a PR preview. The host changes, the assertions don't.
Most apps ship to more than one place: prod, staging, a UAT box for stakeholder demos, and whatever per-PR preview your platform mints when you open a branch. The same flows, different URLs. Test-Lab.ai models this directly: a project owns one or more named environments, and any test plan runs against any of them with no edits. "Sign up, confirm the email, land on the dashboard" is the same test everywhere; only the target changes.
The problem it solves
Without first-class environments, teams duplicate every plan with a hard-coded URL, or bolt URL juggling into CI with sed and hope nothing drifts. Both rot fast: plans fall out of sync, credentials leak between environments, and nobody trusts that staging and prod are really running the same checks.
How it works
Define environments per project
Create named targets like prod, staging, uat, or preview-42. Each carries its own base URL, credentials, notification routing, cookies, and proxy country.
Write plans once, target many
Plans describe behavior, not hosts. Pick an environment at run time and the same plan executes against that target.
Wire previews into CI
Point a run at the preview URL your pipeline just deployed, so every PR is checked before it merges.
Keep secrets isolated
Staging credentials stay in staging and prod credentials stay in prod, so a test can't accidentally hit the wrong environment with the wrong account.
Why it matters
No plan duplication
Maintain one plan per behavior instead of one per environment. Changes apply everywhere at once.
Catch issues before prod
Run the exact prod checks against staging and PR previews, so regressions surface before users see them.
Clean separation of secrets and routing
Per-environment credentials, notifications, and proxy country keep configurations from bleeding into each other.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about test environments in Test-Lab.ai.
No. That's the point. A plan describes behavior, and you choose which environment to run it against at run time. One plan covers prod, staging, UAT, and previews without edits.
