Basic Postman Example

Below is a simple workflow for executing a Postman collection stored on GitHub. You can paste this directly into the YAML of an existing or new test, just make sure to update the name and namespace for your environment as needed.

• The spec.content property defines the path to the postman collection in a GitHub repository
• the spec.steps property defines a single step that runs the collection with the newman Docker image

Basic Postman Workflow

kind: TestWorkflow
apiVersion: testworkflows.testkube.io/v1
metadata:
  name: postman-sample
  namespace: testkube
  labels:
    docs: example
spec:
  content:
    git:
      uri: https://github.com/kubeshop/testkube
      revision: main
      paths:
        - test/postman/executor-tests/postman-executor-smoke-without-envs.postman_collection.json
  container:
    workingDir: /data/repo/test/postman/executor-tests
    resources:
      requests:
        cpu: 256m
        memory: 128Mi
  steps:
    - name: Run test
      run:
        image: postman/newman:6-alpine
        args:
          - run
          - postman-executor-smoke-without-envs.postman_collection.json

After execution, you can see the log output from the test executions under the executions panel tabs:

Basic Postman from Template

Below is an example workflow for executing the Postman collection using an official Testkube Template.
