Writing test plans

This section will guide you through writing a test plan for RTF from a blank file. The test plan will be a simple example that introduces you to the concepts of writing RTF test plans using a docker compose environment and docker scenario. For examples of test plans that can be used for specific testing use cases, please refer to the morgue.

Prerequisites

• Recommended: completed the “Hello, World!” guide — ensures you’re familiar with the RTF CLI and have it installed
• docker and docker compose available locally with your docker daemon running

docker info
docker compose --help

Note This tutorial uses docker and docker compose as execution backends. RTF parameterizes these tools from your config — this tutorial does not teach Docker or Docker Compose themselves. Refer to the Docker documentation and the Docker Compose documentation for details on those tools.
