5. Wait for the remote browser to start

You will see a loading spinner whilst the remote browser is started. Wait for the remote browser to be initiated, you will know it has started as we'll remove the loading spinner and show you a live stream of the browser that has now navigated to the starting URL you set in step 3.

6. Add test steps

Use the test step controls - positioned underneath the browser live stream - to add the test steps for your new test case.

Each time you add a new test step you will see the new step is added to the 'Test Steps' list (positioned under the Test Case Details section). The browser live stream will also update to show the action has been taken and the browser is ready for the next test step to be added.
