Scenario testing in Constellation

User Experience
1

We are working on Constellation-based cases running on the Cosmos application and trying to enable Scenario Testing using the Automation Recorder. However, when we toggle the Automation Recorder and attempt to capture actions for creating a test case, it does not record any action events.

Could you confirm:

  • Is Scenario Testing supported for Constellation cases in Cosmos?
  • If yes, what are the steps or prerequisites to activate and successfully use the Automation Recorder for test automation?

Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Constellation uses different techniques for UI based testing; Pegasystems Documentation

So in short, no you cannot use the Scenario Testing and Automation recorder for Constellation.

@MathanagururajS17612204as Ronald mentioned old way of recording scenario tests is not supported. You can generate test with AI, take a look here: Pegasystems Documentation

You can also use external tools to develop your end-to-end test, please study this guide: Testing Pega Constellation applications | Support Center

You will find information how to develop tests both with Playwright and Selenium.

Thank you for the clarification Ronald

Thank you for the response Kamil. We have a plan to upgrade PEGA version to 25.1.1. PEGA Selenium Starter Kit is compatible up to 24.2. Do you have any plans to provide Starter Kit for 25 version.

Hi @MathanagururajS17612204next SSK version is coming Q1 2026.

Are there specific issues you face while using SSK version 4.3.1 targeting Pega 25 ?
Because you can always start with the actual lib version and upgrade to newest later.

Tip : To use SSK as best you should first define business scenarios in gerkin documents.

As @Kamil Janeczek suggested Pega 25.1 has a built-in test automation tool that uses same gerkin documents as inputs for Pega GenAI
to generate automated scripts for you. Pegasystems Documentation
