The Login Profile was designed to support any authentication setup and can be customized to replicate the unique login steps for your users.
Select the Product you would like to create a Login Profile for from the dropdown available on the top left of your LaunchBrightly console.
Under the App URL and Access section of the Product sidebar, enter the URL for the homepage of the Demo Account (e.g. app.company.com/) you are creating the Login Profile for.
Select the Login radio button and click on the Add Login Sequence and Credentials option to use the point-and-click login wizard to easily record the login steps for your Demo Account, and create the Login Profile.
Add Login Sequence and Credentials
By selecting Add Login Sequence and Credentials the screenshot automation platform will securely open a browser from within the LaunchBrightly console and automatically navigate to the URL for the homepage of the Demo Account you provided. This is a fully functioning browser-in-browser that allows you to navigate throughout the browser, and perform any actions in this browser, as you would in any other setting.
From within this browser-in-browser you can use the point-and-click login wizard to easily replicate the steps to log into your web application, and the screenshot automation platform will meticulously record the steps you take to automatically create a Login Profile.
Below are the options available to customize your Login Profile.
Navigate to the Login URL
If no Login Profile has previously been set for this Product, the browser-in-browser may automatically be redirected to the login URL for the application.
However, you can also use the browser-in-browser to navigate to the login URL of your application in the following ways:
- Use the point-and-click login wizard to easily navigate throughout the browser to locate the login URL of your application
- Manually enter the login URL and click Navigate
Once you have successfully navigated to the login URL of your application click Set URL.
Use Set Email to Identify the Username Input Box
To identify the username input box, and securely add the username for your Demo Account, click the Add step dropdown and select Set email.
Once you have selected Set email the point-and-click login wizard will appear allowing you to use your mouse or keypad tracker to hover over your login page and click on the Email or Username input box to select the input element for login.
After clicking on the email or username input box you can enter the email address or username associated with your demo account in the field provided on the sidebar to the left and select Set Email.
Use Set Password to Identify the Password Input Box
To identify the password input box, and securely add the password for your Demo Account, click the Add step dropdown and select Set password.
Once you have selected Set password the point-and-click login wizard will appear allowing you to use your mouse or keypad tracker to hover over your login page and click on the password input box to select the input element for your password.
After clicking on the password input box you can enter the password for your demo account in the field provided on the sidebar to the left and select Set Password.
Record a Button Click
When setting up a Login Profile you may need to record the click of a button to, for example, click Continue to navigate to a second login screen or click a Submit or Login button to complete the login process.
To record the click of a button click the Add step dropdown and select Click button.
Once you have selected Click button the point-and-click login wizard will appear allowing you to use your mouse or keypad tracker to hover over your login page and select the button you would like to record a Click button action for.
Save Login Profile
Once you have recorded the steps to replicate the unique login steps for your users, click Save to automatically create your Login Profile.
Wait For Authentication
When creating a Login Profile the screenshot automation platform will automatically add a Wait For Authentication step to your Login Profile.
You will see this under the App URL and Access section of the Product sidebar when your Login Profile is saved.
The Wait For Authentication step is automatically added at the end of your Login Profile to add wait time after the final action you set in the Login Profile to provide sufficient time for the login page to finish loading and redirect to the member area of your Demo Account on successful login.
This is an important step in allowing the screenshot automation platform to capture accurate screenshots of your web application, and ensuring the platform does not try to take an action, or capture a screenshot, before a page has been loaded and styles parsed and applied correctly.
The default Wait For Authentication time is set to 3000ms.
