Repositories Overview in AIQ

BeforeUse youthis canoverview beginto workingunderstand withhow repositories support AIQ scenario, resource, and test scripts or AISG, you must complete some setup prerequisites. You must have a repository configured to store your test files and related artifacts. Storing files locally is not supported.

Considerations

If you are going to use visual accessors, you must use a SFTP, FTP, or S3 repository. This is because Images are resource-consuming elements, at the disk, memory, and CPU level, using an S3 repository will yield the best performance. The images will be saved with the script in your S3 repository which simplifies imageasset management.
