Execute SQL queries

Introduction

You can easily connect to a database and execute SQL queries in your tests.

The following databases are supported by our platform:

  • MySQL
  • PostgreSQL
  • Microsoft SQL

To establish a new connection, select the Connect to Database option from the Action dropdown.

If you want to execute a SQL query without fetching the result, use the Execute SQL Query action.

If you want to get the result from a SQL query, use the Extract result from SQL Query option from the Set Variable action. This option allows you to fetch a value from a database and use it in your test.

Steps

  1. Add a Connect to Database step.
  2. Add the query in an Execute SQL Query or Extract result from SQL Query step.

Once the connection to the database is established with the Connect to Database step, you can continue to execute SQL queries until your test execution finishes.


If you want to execute SQL queries from your tests, make sure that your database can be accessed from our list of Secure Gateway IPs:
