The Mapping file is a JSON file that includes an array of entries, which includes an array of requests and responses. Each request can be mapped multiple times to a single response. The JSON should have entries like the ones found in a HAR file. The following elements are mandatory:
- URL in the request
- Status in the response OR RedirectUrl
- In case of NOT mapping a GET call, specify the method type as part of the request
For the URL you can use * as wildcards, which means any request that matches the pattern will be caught and mapped to the response in the file.
The mapping file should be saved locally.

Creating a mapping file that enables pass-through authentication for login
Creating a mapping file that enables pass-through authentication for login
If your test includes a login process, which involves passing credentials to a server, it may not work properly when running the test on the mock network, as the login request will be timed out. To solve this issue, you should create a mapping file that includes the login request and the enabled Pass-through authentication property.
The following example enables the pass-through authentication for the login request:
{"entries": [ { "request": { "url": "https://your_app_domain/login/*" }, "response": { "passthrough":true } } ]}
Replace the URL with your login URL.
To upload your mapping file:
- In the Test Properties pane, click Upload Custom Mapping File.
- Locate the custom Mapping file that you saved and click Open to upload it.
- Click Save to save the activate.
