You can use the Run feature provided by Kuika to test the web application you have developed. Run allows you to preview your application easily, speeding up your development and testing processes. This feature automatically creates and runs both front-end and back-end components. It also allows you to observe your application in real-time by setting up the necessary infrastructure in the test environment.
During the run process, a preview version of your application is created and opened in a new tab in the browser. This process takes place with the standard settings Kuika provides to optimize the user experience. If you need, you can customize these settings according to your more advanced needs.
About the Run Process:
During the run process: The front-end and back-end are regenerated in each process.
During the first Run: The infrastructure required for the application to run is set up automatically. This may take some time, so wait for the first Run to complete.
Live test duration: The test environment created with Run remains active for 3 days (72 hours). When the time expires, the environment is deleted. However, this time is reset with each new Run operation.
Starting the Run Process:
After logging in to the Kuika platform, open the project you want to test from the “Apps” screen.
Click the Run button in the Header section at the top of the application.
When the run process is complete, your application will be displayed in a new browser tab with a Header.
Header Section Details:
The Header contains the following:
Workspace and User Name: Shows user information and the active workspace.
API URL:
This button provides access to your application's API documentation.
When you click the API URL button, a Swagger URL is generated. You can access the API documentation by opening this URL in your browser.
WEB URL:
Contains the preview link of the application under test.
When you click the WEB URL button, a link is created and this link is automatically copied.
You can run this link in your browser or share it with other users.
Pop-up Blocking and Preview:
Kuika automatically makes the necessary arrangements to prevent pop-up blocking programs from blocking the test page.
You can share the preview of the application with other users via the link created with the WEB URL.

The preview page is not automatically refreshed in the following cases:
