Details#

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

PractiTest Overview#

PractiTest is a test management tool that facilitates the organization, tracking, and planning of software testing processes by integrating with Pipedream's automation capabilities. With the PractiTest API, you're able to manipulate test cases, sets, runs, and report on results programmatically. This powerful combination opens the door to automated workflows that enhance testing processes, improve bug tracking, and provide real-time feedback to your team.

Trigger Code#

import { defineSource } from "@pipedream/types"; import { DOCS } from "../../common/constants.mjs"; import common from "../common.mjs"; export default defineSource({ ...common, key: "practitest-issue-created", name: "Issue Created", description: `Emit new event for each new issue [See docs here](${DOCS.issueCreated})`, version: "0.0.1", type: "source", dedupe: "unique", methods: { ...common.methods, async getData() { return this.practitest.getIssues(this.projectId); }, getSummaryName({ title }) { return title; }, }, });

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
PractiTest	`practitest`	`app`	This component uses the PractiTest app.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`
Project	`projectId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

PractiTest uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your PractiTest account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to PractiTest APIs in both code and no-code steps.

PractiTest uses API tokens for authentication. You can create a new API token by going to the Account Settings - “API Tokens”, or going to your personal settings for Personal Tokens. Please visit API tokens for more information.

Slack Overview#

The Pipedream app for Slack enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.

The Pipedream app for Slack is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.

Automate posting updates to your team channels
Create a bot to answer common questions
Integrate with your existing tools and services
And much more!

Action Code#

import slack from "../../slack_v2.app.mjs"; export default { key: "slack_v2-find-message", name: "Find Message", description: "Find a Slack message.

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Slack	`slack`	`app`	This component uses the Slack app.

Action Authentication#

Slack uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Slack account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Slack and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Slack API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

chat:writechat:write.customizechat:write.publicfiles:read
