Using Guided Tours and In-App Help

New to TestOwl, or coming back after a while? Two built-in tours walk you through the product, and help is always one click away.

The two tours

Open the Tour menu in the top bar and choose one:

TourWhat it covers
Quick TourA short walk through the sidebar: the project switcher and every main page, plus Feedback and Report Issue. Takes about a minute.
Full Product TourA deeper walk through the actual pages — Dashboard, Home, Test Suites, Tests, the editor, Flows, Run History and Reports, Schedule Runs, Import Tests, Environments, Data Config (Variables and Secrets), and every Settings tab. It moves you from page to page as it goes.

The Quick Tour starts automatically once, right after you finish onboarding on your first sign-in. You can replay either tour at any time from the same menu, and stop one whenever you like.

The tour never changes your data

The Full Product Tour opens forms and drawers to show you what's inside, but it always closes them again. It never saves, creates, or submits anything.

Help Docs

The Help Docs link at the bottom of the sidebar opens this documentation site in a new tab.

Feedback and issue reports

  • Feedback — share a rating and comments about your experience. See Sending Feedback.
  • Report Issue — send the team a bug report with screenshots. See Reporting an Issue.

Project plan badge

The Project Plan badge in the top bar shows which plan the project you have open is on, for example Trial or Pro, and how long is left when a trial or access period is ending. Hover it for details. Click through to Plans & Usage to see limits and usage.

Account menu

Your initials at the right end of the top bar open the account menu, which shows the email and sign-in method for your account (for example Google), a shortcut to Settings, and Logout.

Desktop update button

When you use TestOwl inside the Desktop App and a new version has been downloaded, an update button appears in the top bar. Click Restart & Install to apply the update.

Sample Demo Project

Every account includes a read-only Sample Demo Project so you can look around before building anything. A banner at the top of the project reminds you that it's a sample and that changes made there won't be saved, and recording is turned off. To work on your own tests, choose Create new project in the project switcher — see Creating a Project.
