Announcing General Availability: Azure Logic Apps Standard Automated Test Framework

We’re excited to announce the General Availability (GA) of the Azure Logic Apps Standard Automated Test Framework - a major step forward in enabling developers to build, test, and maintain enterprise-grade workflows with confidence and agility.

Automated testing has become a cornerstone of modern development practices, and Logic Apps Standard now offers a robust framework to help you create unit tests for both workflow definitions and workflow runs directly within Visual Studio Code. This framework empowers teams to validate logic, simulate external dependencies, and ensure workflows behave as expected—before they’re deployed to production.

Since the public preview, we’ve listened to your feedback and continued to enhance the framework. With GA, we’re introducing several key improvements that make testing even more powerful and flexible.

What’s New in GA

Support for More Mocked Actions

You can now mock a broader range of built-in and managed connector actions, making it easier to isolate your workflow logic from external systems. With this release we unlocked support to mock actions for the following actions, unavailable during public preview:

• Call workflow in this logic app
• Execute inline code (JavaScript, C#, PowerShell
• Call Functions (Azure functions, local functions)
• XML Operations (transform, parse with schema)
• Liquid Operations (JSON to JSON, JSON to text, XML to JSON, XML to text)
• Data Mapper operations

This enhancement allows for more comprehensive and reliable unit tests, providing more control to your workflow tests, especially in complex integration scenarios.

Access to Workflow Settings for Assertions

The framework now allows you to access and assert against workflow settings, such as parameters and app setting values. This means you can validate not just the behavior of your workflow, but also the environment in which it runs—ensuring logic consistency across different environments.

Inline Script Actions Support

Inline Code actions are now fully supported in test scenarios. JavaScript actions are now executed as part of the test workflow execution, since they are part of workflow logic. This improvement allows you to validate the logic of those scripts at part of your workflow scenarios. We are working on bringing similar support for C# and PowerShell scripts.
