Problem

Why Are Desktop UI Tests Rarely Integrated into CI/CD?

While web tests run in pipelines by default, Windows desktop tests are often executed manually. This is due to missing CLI support, complex setup, and lack of reporting integration.

No CLI mode — Many desktop test tools don't offer command-line execution

Missing exit codes — Pipelines need 0/1 exit codes for pass/fail decisions

No automatic reporting — Results must be checked manually

Session dependency — Desktop tests require an active Windows session

FAQ: CI/CD UI Testing

Does ZenoTest require an active desktop session?

Yes, like all UIAutomation-based tools. On CI/CD agents, this can be configured via auto-login or an interactive session.

Which CI/CD systems are supported?

Any system that can execute command-line programs: Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, TeamCity, and more.

Can I run only specific tests in the pipeline?

Yes. Individual projects, suites, or test cases can be targeted via parameters.

What does the pipeline command look like?

Example: zenotest.exe -project "C:\Tests\MyProject.zproj" -suite "Smoke" -report "C:\Reports\"
