Batch Mode

Chathai supports generating multiple Excel files within a single folder.

npx chathai generate ./xlsxtemplate ./output

This will generate Cypress tests for every .xlsx file in the specified folder.

Custom Workflow

• Set default template/output directories using --template-dir and --output-dir.
• Integrate with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins.
  Example workflow:

  - name: Generate Cypress tests
    run: npx chathai generate ./xlsxtemplate ./cypress/e2e
  - name: Run Cypress
    run: npx cypress run

• You can extend templates as needed.

Troubleshooting

• Error: Invalid template format
  → Verify that all required columns exist in the Excel file.
• Error: Excel file not found
  → Check the path and filename.
• Error: Failed to create files
