What is a Suite?
A Suite is a container that groups multiple flows together. Suites provide:- Organization: Keep related flows together (e.g., “Login Flows”, “Checkout Flows”)
- Batch Execution: Run all flows in a suite with one click
- Shared Authentication: Set up authentication once for all flows in the suite
Creating a Suite
Step 1: Click “Create Suite”
Navigate to the Flows page and click the folder+ icon or Create Suite button.Step 2: Enter Suite Details
Required:- Name: A descriptive name for your suite (e.g., “Authentication Flows”)
- Description: Additional context about what this suite tests
- Auth Instructions: Shared authentication that runs once before all flows
Step 3: Save
Click Create Suite to save. Your new suite appears in the Flows page.Auth Instructions (Setup Flow)
Auth Instructions are special setup instructions that run once at the beginning of the suite, before any flows execute. This is perfect for:- Logging in with test credentials
- Accepting permissions or completing onboarding steps
- Navigating to a specific section of the app
Benefits of Auth Instructions
- Write once, use many times: All flows in the suite start from an authenticated state
- Faster execution: Authentication happens only once, not before every flow
- Easier maintenance: Update login credentials in one place

- Drag and drop flows using the handle icon (⋮⋮)
- Release to set the new order
Removing Flows from Suite
