Switch the Automation Language

  • Updated

If you work in an international team, you might want to be able to translate test cases from the language you use to another language. 

Or you might just want to automate in a language other than English.

In TF Editor, you can switch the automation language of test cases on the fly, at any point. 

In order to do that:

  1. Click the language dropdown in the test case header line above the text pane of TF Editor.
  2. In the dropdown menu, select the language you want to switch to. A CHANGE TEST LANGUAGE modal will be displayed.
  3. Click TRANSLATE to switch the language. The test case will be translated into the selected language. You will be able to run the test as normal, without any changes required.
  When you switch the language of a test case, only the Gherkin sentences will be translated. Any parameters (i.e., selectors, variables, environments, etc.) will remain in the original language of the test case.

Supported Languages

Currently, TF Editor supports the following automation languages: 

  • English
  • Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia)
  • Chinese (中文)
  • Turkish (Türkçe)
  You can find the TestFirst Gherkin specification for each of the languages in this article.
