# Test Suites Management
A test suite is a collection of test cases designed to verify that your conversational application functions as expected. It is an essential component of software testing and quality assurance processes. The test suites page contains all the test suites your organization has created for all its available platforms. In this article, we'll detail the different options you have to manage them.
# Adding New Test Suites
The first thing you'll want to do when you get access to your Dashboard account is to create a new test suite. To do this, simply click on the "Add test suite" button on the top right corner of the page.
When you do so, you'll need to enter the platform you want to test and set a proper name for your test suite. The test suite name must have at least 4 characters for the "Save" button to enable. Click on "Save," and that's it! Your new test suite will be created.
You'll be immediately taken to the Test page. This is the most important page in our Dashboard and where you'll spend most of your time creating your functional testing scripts. To learn more about it, click here.
# Deleting a Test Suite
Once you have test suites created, you can easily delete them by clicking on the "trash" icon within the test suite menu. You'll be asked for confirmation, as this action cannot be undone.
Simply click "OK" to remove the selected test suite.
# Cloning a Test Suite
Also on the test suite menu, you'll see a "Clone" option that is used to clone your test suite. This is useful when you have a test suite that you can use as a base for a new one. It will copy all the tests within it, as well as its configurations. The new test suite will have the same name plus a number for each copy you create.
# Downloading a Test Package
Your test suite is also exportable as a zip test package by clicking on the Export -> YAML option on the test suite menu. This package will contain your test suite YAML file as well as its configuration in a JSON file. You can also export a test suite to an Excel format in a similar way by clickin Export -> Excel.
# Filtering Your Test Suites
There are two ways you can filter your test suites. First, you can filter your test suites by platform by clicking on the platform dropdown at the top of the page.
You can also filter your test suites by name by typing in the search box before it.
# Importing Test Suites
If you want to import multiple test cases from an Excel file, you can do so by clicking on the Import button on this page. This link will open a modal where you'll be able to select your Excel file and upload your test cases to the Dashboard. If you don't know the format to use, don't worry! You'll also be able to download a template to start.
