Projects & Authentication
Learn how to create projects and manage authentication credentials in TesterArmy.
Projects organize your QA tests around a specific application or website. Each project can store login credentials that the AI agent uses automatically during tests.
All plans include unlimited projects.
Creating a Project
- From the dashboard, click New Project
- Enter a project name and the target URL
- Click Create
The project appears in your sidebar and is accessible to all team members.
Project Settings
Access settings via the Settings tab in any project. The Authentication section is where account access details for the agent are managed.
Authentication Credentials
Save login credentials so the AI agent can authenticate automatically during tests.
Adding Credentials
- Go to Project → Settings
- Click Add Credential
- Fill in:
- Label — A name to identify this credential (e.g., "admin", "test-user")
- Username — Email or username for login
- Password — The password (stored encrypted)
- Click Save
You can add multiple credentials per project for different user roles.
How Credentials Work
When you run a test:
- The AI agent receives all saved credentials for the project
- When encountering a login form, it automatically uses the appropriate credentials
- No need to include passwords in your test prompts
Passwords are encrypted with AES-256-GCM and only decrypted server-side at runtime. They're never exposed to the client or stored in plain text.
Managing Credentials
From the Settings tab:
- Edit — Update the label, username, or password
- Delete — Remove credentials you no longer need
Deleting a credential takes effect immediately for future tests.
