Run Collection

Collection Runner will execute all the requests in the collection and display output in a beautiful format similar to the extension UI.

Run Single Collection

• tc --col 'colNameOrId' will run requests in the collection from CLI

Run Multiple Collections

• tc --col "colNameOrId1,colNameOrId2" will run multiple collections from CLI

Run All Collections

• tc --col all will run all the collections from CLI
• tc --col all --skip "ColA,ColB" will run all collections except ColA & ColB.

Run Collection Parallel

• tc --col 'colNameOrId' --concurrent 5 will run 5 requests at a time in parallel from CLI.

Run Folder

• tc --fol 'folNameOrId' will run requests in the folder from CLI

Run Multiple Folders

• tc --fol 'folNameOrId1,folNameOrId2' will run requests in the folders from CLI

Run Selected Requests

• tc --reqlist "nameOrId1,nameOrId2,nameOrId3" will run selected requests from the collection

Environment

By default, the collection or request will use the active environment. If you would like to run using a different environment, then use the --env argument.

• Example: tc --col 'colNameOrId' --env 'Staging'

Data File

By default, the runner will use the data file attached in the Run Collection UI. If you would like to run using a different data file, then use the --data-file argument.

• Example: tc --col 'colNameOrId' --data-file 'relativePathOrFullPath'
• The input file can be in csv, json formats.

Reports

CLI can generate reports in xml, html, json and csv formats.

• tc --col 'User' --report xml,html command will execute all the requests and save reports in thunder-reports folder

Open Run Collection UI from CLI

If you like to execute Run collection in extension UI quickly, then you can do it easily from CLI using--ui argument.

• tc --col 'User' --ui To open a collection runner in UI and execute automatically
• tc --col 'User' --ui2 To open a collection runner in UI without auto-run.
