Custom Events

Ordino allows you to build custom actions or user journeys by directly interacting with the underlying tool’s native methods and actions.

This approach gives you full control, bypassing Ordino’s abstraction layer, and ensures you can leverage tool-specific capabilities as needed.

  • locator → The element locator (e.g., XPath, CSS selector, or tool-specific reference).

  • Returns → A tool element object on which you can invoke native actions (e.g., .click(), .type()).

Ordino Custom Mode

Using Ordino’s direct tool method reference:

Here, Ordino will call the Cypress (or other tool) element object directly, rather than going through Ordino’s wrapper.

Building User Journeys

By chaining multiple oi.ui.element() calls, you can construct full user journeys while still working with native tool methods.

Example: Login Flow

Key Notes

  • Use this mode when you need maximum control over the test framework.

  • This does not abstract or transform the call – it executes directly on the tool object (e.g., Cypress, Playwright, etc.).

  • Perfect for custom journeys, advanced locators, or tool-specific actions not exposed by Ordino’s higher-level API.
