# Using the GENI Transformation Factory This page walks through the GENI Transformation Factory (GTF) workflow, based on the official Appvance training unit “GENI Transformation Factory: An Introduction” (© 2026). GTF is **available after Release 5.3.1** of Appvance IQ.
**What you need:** a document explaining the testing conditions — for example a **BRD (Business Requirements Document)** containing business objectives, a well-defined scope, functional and non-functional requirements, assumptions, and other required parameters.
### Step 1 — Start with the source document Create (or reuse) a **Business Requirements Document (BRD)**. It should contain: - Business objectives - A well-defined scope - Functional and non-functional requirements - Assumptions and other required parameters ### Step 2 — Navigate to the GENI Transformation Factory In Appvance IQ, go to **Autonomous Testing → GENI Transformation Factory**. ### Step 3 — Feed the BRD and start the process Upload the BRD document and start the process. GTF takes it from there. ### Step 4 — Generation settings - In **“Document Types”**, select what will be generated. - Name the output (optional, but helpful). - Select **“Next”**. ### Step 5 — Watch the process The process keeps you updated on **every step** while the artifacts are generated. ### Step 6 — Download the result When the process finishes, you can download a **.ZIP file** that contains the objects you decided to create. ### The generated files
