Field notes
Convoy’s central constraint is that test authors phrase actions against labelled controls rather than implementation-specific locators. Its examples include branching with “which,” an inspect command that reports role and name, and a distinction between YAML flows and TypeScript control logic. The page describes snapshots from iOS, Android, and web interfaces, with a stated 20-second default window for waiting for the next screen to settle.
