Keyboard shortcuts
Manual testing is rhythm work. The faster Pass / Fail / Capture / Next becomes muscle memory, the faster a regression run finishes. Every shortcut below is remappable from Settings → Shortcuts inside the extension — click a binding, press the keys you want, and it saves when you click away. Press Backspace to clear a binding and its default returns automatically.
| Shortcut | Action | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Alt + N | Next step | Runner |
| Alt + P | Previous step | Runner |
| Alt + 1 | Mark step Pass | Runner |
| Alt + 2 | Mark step Fail | Runner |
| Alt + 3 | Mark step Blocked | Runner |
| Alt + 4 | Mark step Skip | Runner |
| Alt + S | Capture screenshot | Runner |
| Alt + M | Log defect for current step | Runner |
| / | Focus search in test case list | List |
| Esc | Close dialog / cancel edit | Workspace |
All shortcuts are customizable in Settings → Shortcuts inside the extension.
Conflicts with the host page
The runner only listens for shortcuts when the side panel has focus. If a key fires inside the application under test instead, click the panel once or remap the binding to a combination the page does not use (e.g. Alt based combos).
Chrome global commands
Opening the side panel itself is a Chrome-level shortcut configured at
chrome://extensions/shortcuts. Set it once and the panel is one keypress
away on every tab.
