Getting Started

Get started with scripted browsers by creating a monitor to test the availability and functionality of your site in different locations. Scripted browsers emulate a custom user experience by scripting browsers that navigate your website, take specific actions, and ensure specific elements are present. Playwright powers these monitors.

  • Go to console.boltic.io > Monitor

    Select Monitor

  • Click Create monitor.

  • Select the Scripted Browser tile to test the availability and functionality of your site in different locations.

    Select Scripted Browser

  • Configure the monitor. Fill in the fields you want. Add a name for your monitor. Select the browser that you would like to run the test on.

    Fill Details

  • Click Next to select the location you want to test the monitor.

    Select Locations

  • Click Next to select the location you want to test the monitor.

    Select Locations

  • Click Next to add your script describing the actions you want the monitor to take. The monitor pre-fills the editor with an example script you can work from, or you can remove this and start from scratch.

    Write Script

  • Click Validate if you want to test your script. This may take a few minutes depending on the script.
