Validation

A validation is a condition that must be true for a test to pass, such as expected text, URL, element state, or email arrival.

Read definition and examples
Feature definition Build tests 2 min reference

An email received validation waits for a matching message in the Rima test inbox and fails if it does not arrive.

Read definition and examples
Feature definition Build tests 2 min reference
